Woken by sore throat at 4:30, finally gave in to paracetamol and sf jelly at 5am which has helped.
Bg 5.0
Last day in York today, it has been lovely here in the sunshine.

@Bubbsie glad your INR results were good and hope Harry is back to his old self today.

Morning All. 5.8 but still a 5. Probably down to a ramekin of blueberries after my mushroom omlette. Also knocked my two g&ts on the head weekdays so will be higher.
Weather breaking down today which is a shame.
@Bubbsie glad your results are ok and hope Harry is better now.
@DJC3 that sounds like a miserable sore throat and cold. Well done for pushing through. Can you rest up when you get home?
Have a great Wed everyone. Stay well, stsy safe.

Good morning all. Weather is wonderful, brilliant blue skies and expecting about 19 degrees outside.

Unfortunately suffering a bit from the sniffles, but nothing too bad -- blood sugars have been a bit erratic for the last few days. Woke up to 5.6 today, but dropped to 4.9 within the next 40 minutes and stayed there. Yesterday's fasting levels were 5.1.

@DJC3 -- Hope you feel better soon. The sore throat sounds very painful.
@shelley262 and @Goonergal -- Wonderful progress on your fasting -- hope you don't feel too hungry.
@JohnEGreen -- Glad you enjoyed your birthday with great food and wonderful weather and brilliant fbgs the next day.
@geefull -- Good luck for your results -- not that you need it. You are doing brilliantly.
@Bubbsie -- Great that your INR levels were in range and you don't have to be back for another three weeks.
@Cumberland -- Hugs for the hypo.

Thanks PM.
I’ve got theatre tickets with a friend on Thurs, I wish it was a day or 2 later so I could be sure of feeling ok, but at least I won’t have to talk in the theatre so can give my throat a rest!
