Hi All
Can anyone advise me when doing a fasting test in the morning if it is best to do this as soon as you have woken up or is it better to walk around a little bit first to get glucose moving (if indeed it does)?
Also, I tend to take the fasting reading on rising and then eat breakfast maybe an hour later after having a cup of tea in between. Would leaving having breakfast an hour later make my post prandial reading an incorrect one?
Many thanks for any advice
