Type 2 Life

Before bed:
Blood Glucose 4.8 mmol / L
Blood Ketones 1.8 mmol / L

Woke during the night with blood glucose 3.7 mmol / L

This morning:
Blood Glucose 4.3 mmol / L
Blood Ketones 3.6 mmol / L

So very pleased with both of those! That's the lowest ever fasting blood glucose along with the highest ever fasting blood ketones for me!

Pity we cant measure insulin at home, at the same time as we measure BG and BHOB.

Good to "see" you again guys! :-D
 
It is my understanding that this neighborhood thread has prime real estate topics for sale. Therefore, I am relocating here effective immediately and will pay my mortgage in test strips, which sadly are available on a black market in the US due to their astronomical prices outside of insurance coverage plans.

Watch out for the reset, as we'll be changing the brand on those strips.

Welcome , young man. I am sure that your FBG results will improve very quickly here. A shift in gear sort of thing.
 
Hey....hello you lot. I'm pleased to see we have a lovely new home. This morning my blood glucose was a healthy 4.8 fasting. I'm ok with that number. Had my eye screening this morning too. How long does it take for these darn drops to completely wear off? I've got my sunglasses on right now, which admittedly makes me feel like a rock star. Wearing them indoors as I'm lying down, TV on, iPad & nibbly things to hand (salted popcorn is my treat today.) One is allowed to self indulge when one is a tad delicate. :happy:

So now that it has been established that we can discuss anything, I've decided to forgo the expense of weekly therapy to unpack all of my luggage in this virtual lounge. Let's begin with Phase One. Unresolved Childhood Conflicts. Just kidding. Kind of.
 
Hi and WELCOME Alisonjane10. We were not separated for long after all.

By the way, the more brave posters here may even post their post prandial numbers

Toilet training will be dealt with on another thread, along with nutritional constipation and other similarlly related issues.
