[QUOTE="KennyA, post: 2742299, member: 517579"] Many of us get this. It's the liver adding glucose it's made to your system in an effort to keep you at the (higher) levels it's got used to and thinks are normal. Eventually it will reduce, but my morning levels will almost always be the highest I'll see all day. I've found that having something/anything to eat will reassure my liver that I have food and won't starve, so it can stop making glucose. Three almonds will do it. It's perfectly normal, and I know non-diabetic CGM users who report exactly the same thing. Edited to include: And as a postscript - as a result I almost never test BG in the mornings. For me it's only an indication of how active my liver is. [/QUOTE]
