6.2 this morning. Lord knows where that came from.

Having said that, this is the 4th test in a row that said precisely 6.2. I was 6.2 all day yesterday, apparently. If this continues today I might try another batch of strips.
When that happens to me I change the lancet! :oops: ;)

This morning, FBG was 5.6, same as yesterday - but I had different readings during the day, so the lancet can stay! ;)

Bullies, discrimination of any kind, bad manners, parents who let their kids run amok & spoil things for everyone else, unkind spiteful people, being a clumsy clod, toast crumbs in the bed, cold feet!!
Hi folks. Still feeling rubbish & not much of an appetite. :arghh: BG 4.7 this morning. Via several PM's, I'm aware some newbies are put off posting on this thread, perceiving it (rightly or wrongly) as a "competition." That's quite upsetting to me. The following statistics are taken directly from the forum info pages: Target blood glucose levels for people with type 2 diabetes are: - 4 to 7 mmol/l before meals and when fasting. And, 4 to 8.5 mmol/l 2 hours following meals. If achieved, great. If not, then you have a goal to aim for. Good luck to us all in doing so. :)
