I’m a T2 since June 2019. Since then I have been following low carb and have lost almost 3 stone in weight.
I’ve been testing my bg regularly over the past month or so. Since last week, I have had high readings of a morning which are generally not going down over a period of time and this morning have actually gone up.
There are a couple of things which may have impacted my readings:
* I opened a new pack of strips
* Period started yesterday-first one I have had since I’ve been testing
* I feel as though I am getting a cold
I usually get a reading of a morning of just over 6 and this has been more like 6.5 over the last few days with 7.3 on Saturday. I do intermittent fasting and those numbers are not going down, even after 3-4 hours. This morning was 6.2 at 7.35am and then 7.3 an hour later-I haven’t eaten and have only drink water. I’m puzzled and also a little concerned as the numbers looked great until then.
Any advice would be appreciated.
