over selling.... oh so many things are enthusiastically oversold
morning all. 5.4 for me today. An early supper and copious wine most likely helped this number although I had disturbed sleep too. Its a lovely day here so a beach walk and coffee now before facing the "things that must be done". Have a good day all, if you possibly can....

Hi all I need a little advice so I’m going to bed soon and my BG is 4.8 I don’t feel like I could eat anything as I’ve had intense pain in my stomach for the past half hour and my family don’t keep any drinks with sugar so if any of you have any advice it’d be very much appreciated

Hi @Ziggy2017 sorry your not feeling well. I was wondering if you can manage to drink and there is sugar in the house maybe make your own sugary drink a glass of warm water with a teaspoon or two of sugar dissolved in it not ideal but may help to get you to a level you feel more comfortable with sorry I can't be of more help
