[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 596894, member: 94045"] Hi Shaun, It is normal to have a higher fasting level in the mornings, but it will come down eventually. It is often the last reading to get under control. Have you read about the Dawn Phenomenon or Liver Dump? This is because when you wake up your body needs extra energy to get up and start the day, so with no food inside you, your liver dumps glucose in your system to help matters along. There are lots of threads about it on here if you have a search, and you can Google it. Another thing is, to test immediately you get out of bed rather than leave it till after you shower or potter about. [/QUOTE]
