How dare you try to keep your blood glucose at the level of a person without diabetes! What terrible management
 

There is a black hole on the daily graphs around about midnight, on mine anyway. Though it's usually just after.midnight the gap appears.

I don't know how many data points are used in the daily graph, but if it was a quick fall and a quick rise, and it was around midnight it just might not have shown up.

The sensor does one reading every minute, but the daily graph clearly doesn't show that much detail. It's a bit like an 8 bit recording compared to a 24 bit one.
 
@Alison54321 ooh I haven't noticed that on mine. Sometimes I get a little gap because I sleep too long and don't get that scan in before 8 hours
but I've definitely noticed the little gaps if my sugar is going up/down too quickly. I had a blue clock which apparently indicates a time zone change(?! Haven't been anywhere) appear the other day and it lost several hours of the graph! I'm going to contact Abbott and see what they say about that- my DSN says a lot of people are having some decently large gaps that aren't due to lack of scanning.

But yes it does seem to smooth out the readings somewhat, I think that's probably what happened last night. I've just had a few nights of lows so was trying to avoid that, didn't need it swapping for a night of 9/10s!
 
Hello guys Sorry I haven't been about but I has a severe hypo late Monday night 25th June. My daughter found me and I vomited.
But Warning Alert
some vomit went into my lungs and I contracted a critical pnuemonia and went into ICU and now I am on HDU. My family were told to expect the worse. I know absolutely nothing of that day plus I missed my daughters wedding on .the 30th
 

Oh no, so sorry to hear that, what a terrible experience, and such a shame to have missed the wedding. I was wondering where you were, but assumed you were busy with the wedding. How are you now?
 

What can I say. Gutted for you, what an absolutely terrible thing. Thank goodness you are on the road to recovery. I wish you well.
 
First up, let's wish the founder of this great thread and a star of the forum all the best in her recovery from what has been a very challenging time in her life. Get well soon RRB. X X.


Now I need to say that I have NEVER had a hypo at a gig/ concert. There are two reasons for this.....
1. I am a perfect diabetic
2. I've never been to a gig/ concert. ( not sure I should be admitting this )
@Mel dCP . You've obviously upset a guy with very strong wrist muscles.
 
Hey @slip . Just read what you posted again.
