[QUOTE="Murphyorky, post: 1551095, member: 428123"] Thanks [USER=150927]@AloeSvea[/USER] and I'm really getting the picture in terms of how personally tailored exercise has to be. By the way, my new forays into testing alarmed me this morning, as I did a test on getting up (6.0) and then again after a short brisk walk to work, (still before eating anything) and found that my reading had actually gone up to 6.6. I know that this exercise probably wasn't enough to effect any positive change, but was nevertheless alarmed by it. I've just come across this article about how exercise can sometimes initially cause readings to go up: [URL]https://mysugr.com/high-blood-sugar-after-exercise/[/URL] But the important message is still clearly that exercise is the right way to go. Sleep is also a priority for me. I am having bad problems with insomnia at the moment and can almost literally feel the cortisol skittering around me. I had a particularly bad night last night and so tried testing myself first thing to see what effect that would have. This is the first fasting test that I have done and I am really hoping that the reading will go down if I repeat it after a decent night. [/QUOTE]
