Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

[Ali2020]

Hello folks. I'm happy with my 5.1 FBG this morning. Actually expected it to be higher following a rubbish nights sleep due to sore eyes following diabetic eye screening yesterday. Have a good day everyone. Best wishes & good health. X

Is it normal to have side effects from Eye screening? I am due for my first Eye screen tomorrow but ketones ++ and blood sugars From 16-20 mmol yesterday is enough for me to be troubled by at the moment! Also not keen to go to hospital when blood and urine tests so Bad.

I have never had side effects unless you count your eyes being light sensitive for a few hours .

5.1 today, lower than yesterday. 2nd week no bydureon, and looks like impact is minimal, fingers crossed!

16 this morning :***:

6.2 blood at 9am. No Libre reading because I just put on a new sensor.

I'm slightly miffed with the Libre in that it's just told me that the sensor has expired, and won't read at all. I was expecting to get complete data until exactly 336 hours after activation, but it seems it deactivates completely and refuses to read historic data after this time.

Over slept today giving me a 5.4 Still under 5.5 which is what I like to see though
