Five point seven this morning. Best result for a while but new sensor is still settling in so will need to calibrate just to check against finger prick this morning.

7.2 for me, seems the 7's are my new morning norm for whatever reason, totally independent of previous days carb intake.

4.44 mmol/L on this blessed Ash Wednesday morning. Rain on and off today, so I’ll be staying indoors. Best to keep moving and stay well hydrated.

7.1 at 6:40am, no idea why but it just deflates me sometimes. Especially when other people I know can eat a jam donut with no unknown consequences.

Now I am fancying jam donuts ..I think of all the things I used to eat its a wonder I wasn't diabetic a lot sooner !

7.6 this morning did have garlic bread and chips with my steak last night ....BG went up to 13 .4 ....very silly .

Libre says : five point three

It’s seven am

I had two cans of low carb beer last night
Delicious but this might be affecting my libre readings ?

What was in the coffee?

 

[DEBBIESCOTT]

Libre 4.3
Hospital this morning for dye test, still looking a bit yellow

 

[Bcgirl]

First test, 5.0. I knew it was wrong so instead of giving a big yippeeeeeee….i tested again. 7.0. Darn it.
Was up coughing last night and did have cough syrup. I laid awake on the couch with a tiny blanket until the medicine took affect. Feeling fine today, went to the gym and did my 10,000 steps because it’s minus 10 and windy here today. Also did back and chest weights.
Think we have two more super cold days then back to normal.
Fun to see garden stuff coming into the stores…..spring is coming

4.9 today according to the libre, fingerprick 5.7

splash of milk (semi skimmed for change) maybe 30-40ml i did eat my main evening meal and barely moved on libre maybe glitchy sensor or something. Just shows fingerprick greater accuracy than cgm is for whatever reason. Hope all went well at hospital slightly jaundiced? get well soon.

Thanks, I’m fine it’s just the dye they use that takes a while to clear out your system so you look jaundiced
