Ouch...hope you feel better soon x
 
4.2 before bed, slice of toast, bolused for 10g and have 10 free. Came up to 6.4 before sleep. Woke at 3.40 with. 3.0! Treated with lucazade and -50%temp basal for 1hr. Woke at 5.4
Think the hypo was due to diy all day yesterday and not finishing till late last night!
 
4.3 last night
2.1 this morning
deffo a new pattern in the AM these past few days
basal testing starts tonight o_O
 
9.2 before bed, 11.6 this morning, Libre showed a nice steady rise through the night :meh:
 
Stayed up till 4 trying to stabilise my BG (too high early in the night, dropping too fast later on)
Fell asleep just after 4 AM at 6.9 and woke up at 9.4 ^_^ So feeling pretty okay about how today is going.

@slip That sucks ^^; I'm sure you'll get it back down soon enough~

@Natalie1974 Awesome! That sounds like a great night~
 
5.7 going to bed, 3.1 waking. I woke up with really dry mouth & desperate for a wee so was convinced it was going to be high on testing. Obviously not. Fine, I will put the CGM back on this morning then - was enjoying a couple of days with nothing bleeping at me, but clearly I do need it bleeping at me.
 
was irritatingly high all evening yesterday ( 8's and 9's ) but finally hit 7.6 at 11:30pm and bed time
got up for basal at 1am ( 7.7) and 3am ( 9.8 ggrrrr!! ) so a 3.3u correction and a waking BG of 6.5 at 7am

this is much more like my normal pattern so who knows where the 2.2's from the last 2 mornings came from :eek:
 
Fell asleep at 8.3 woke up at 9.6

I've been super worried about going low whilst I'm asleep so I guess I'm running a little hot. Going to not correct my waking BG and see what it does through the rest of the morning. (Learning! *Thumbs up*)

Thanks ^=^ Uhm. 9.6 seems to be about average for me these past couple of weeks and I'm trying to figure out why. I also seem to be super sensitive to insulin still too. So a correcting dose of one unit might push me a tiny bit too low and then I won't be able to drive in to an appointment I have at uni. I also seem to scrub about 1-2mmol over the hour after I wake up so I might be 7 by the time I hit uni! Thanks for your concern though ^=^
 
4.8 this morning, higher last night so a correction of 1/2 unit has helped bring it down. Something is going on with my eye, woke up to a painful left eye yesterday and it's getting worse, a little swollen, very watery, hurts in sunlight ( no I'm not a vampire lol) so painful, water is running down my cheek now. Will make an appointment with a GP, as this is the good eye !! Take care

I agree with the1 unit, correction, I am sensitive too, I have a 1/2 unit echo pen now, as my other 1/2 unit pen is no longer in use. My DSN gave me two pens, good luck :)
 
Woke up to 17.7 this morning!
I'm going Low carb from tomorrow - 60g max per day (medium carb?) at set points through the day to monitor my levels!
I need to see single figures soon!
