Blood Glucose - Overnight Increase

[WilliamAntill9744]

Hi

I was wondering! I tested last night at 5.6, two hours after food. And this morning, before breakfast it was 8.3. I am sure there is a really simple explanation for this. Anybody help or point me to a previous thread/article?

Thanks in Anticipation

Bill
