2 mornings in a row I've woken at 4.2 and 3.9 :/ unheard of normally but I seem to have 'low phases' not a monthly thing and not regular that I can find. Anyone else have anything similar?

Basically bloods are on target or below 90% of the time (I normally only get that maybe 40%)

I get periods of unexplained excellent blood sugars , they can last up to a week or so for me. I put it down to the body being more sensitive to insulin during this period , I couldn't correlate it to anything else.

Have you upped your exercise regime? I sometimes find vigorous exercise (e.g. ~ 10 km run , ~20 mins rowing and ~30 km fast cycle in the same day) gives me perfect blood sugars for around 3 days after. By perfect/excellent blood sugars I mean non-diabetic levels ~ 4.6 mmol.
 
Cblake843 Thanks very much for the reply, there is only one thing I can think of doing on the weekend... I hadent thought of that and havent seen correcaltion before. Will be something to check in future.
