[QUOTE="SussexDave, post: 2110693, member: 250182"] An interesting take on this. I also suffer from severe lethargy and tiredness and am lucky that I am retired as I could not work for the reasons mentioned by ElizaVK. I have tested by "finger-pricking" since diagnosed (about 5 years) and always had my highest readings after breakfast but not always above 8mmol/l. I recently obtained an Abbott Libre and found that I had been suffering hypos in my sleep (about 5 am) my body seemed to respond by producing a rapid rise in BG resulting in high levels even before I ate breakfast. I am forced to eat a snack late at night to counter this and still have my highest readings at breakfast time but at least no hypos in my sleep. [/QUOTE]
