philchap1 unsure about BG in type1 but remember my sister saying she woke to between 4-to 6 now she had reduced her carbs so hope I've not got it wrong and your BG is a good range! K Have a good day

BG of 7.5 at 7.30am, not great but hey ho there is always tomorrow

Hi Ymdawd we have all had those days you'll get back, take care !K

 

[philchap1]

Between 4 and 7 is the target but a couple of carbs over or under make a big difference for me lol.

grey but not raining so far today (which is good because I got drenched on my walk yesterday and had to change when I got back ). If the rains keep off mum's little dog (Suzie) and I will venture forth after Sunday lunch.

5.6 this morning after third night with next to no sleep and a bunch of weirdish readings yesterday was 6.2 after lunch then several hours after and not eating was 8.0 before dinner then 6.4 an hour after dinner and then 5.3 an hour after that and 5.4 at bed time. Theres no accounting for D even when you think you've got it hacked.

7.8 this morning.....not surprised ive had a rough week.....feeling low.....constantly cold and craving comfort food (did give in a bit).......I am type 2 diagnosed May 18, diet controlled.

 

[Kentoldlady1]

KOT this diabetes lark seems to go in spirals...stress...lack of sleep...anxiety...agree with @Granny_grump_ likely the lack of sleep & stress is responsible...there's little we can do about that...hope you get some respite soon.

Thank you. I am hopeful that my oh is getting an interview this week and I am applying for work. Its hard tho. I look after my grandchildren so that my daughter and d in law can work, so that's going to be really difficult to manage. But in the great scheme of things its not too bad. I keep reminding myself that we are all ok and my grandson seems much better. He has another hospital apt later this month, so all fingers and toes are crossed.
Hope you are well. x

 

[Kentoldlady1]

Totally forgot why I came here!!! I am 8.2 this am.

 

[Glenmac]

8.1 for me this sunny morning at 8 am after a sleeping tablet and the first good sleep for a while!This for me is very high.
This diabetes is a puzzle......low carb meal last night so stuck to the diet........this morning at10am after a low carb breakfast.......6.2..........Hope the sun is shining for you all,enjoy your weekend.
