Flu vaccination went well. Drank plenty of water throughout the day and would hardly know I’d had it. However, I have spent the night chomping on Jelly Babies and am still low this morning. No three am surge and no foot on the floor rocket. Actually ate breakfast before insulin. Unheard of. So I expect the vaccination dropped my levels. Which I have to say is not the usual way around for me. But I am never low in the mornings.
Dentist this morning. That will up things I’m sure.
 
Woke on 6.8 and feeling v tired.
Now at work 5.4 supping coffee and debating a biscuit.
I'm on some new to me GF stem ginger ones from asda and it says they are 13g per biscuit yet they taste v sweet and effect my levels like they are nearer 20g per biscuit.
Lovely though lol

It never fails to amaze me how different we all are - in our reactions to vaccines, the same food, the effect of stress etc etc. Whoever coined the phrase 'the only type of diabetes you have is yours' got that right!
Good luck at the dentist's @becca59
 
I made this little chap last night and was quite late going to bed.....levels a bit high but i needn't have worried as my alarm went off at 3am reminding me i need to stop moving and get to bed earlier.lol
