Can anyone explain to me what is the significance of the fasting tests please.
Mine do not seem to make any sense, as I usually try to make sure mine bg levels are below 8 at bedtime and my average on waking is 6.2. Last night after a heavy day at work, (I decided to clear out the attic, which meant shifting a lot of boxes of books and bags), I was too tired to care that my levels were running at 10 so I just zonked out. This morning I expected the worse, but have just got a reading of 5.3. Why? No abnormal amount of alcohol, and I had paella for supper, a rare occurence, but since hubby was cooking I wasn't about to turn it down. :lol:
Everyone, from the doctor to this forums members seem to be obsessed with fasting tests, so does anyone else have these weird readings?
I'm borderline diabetic, on no medication and with a hba1c of 6.5.
