Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

[dunelm]

6.7

I get fed up when I sometimes get a 6+ result but your HbA1c trend is downwards

Morning All

Another 6.0 for me today, not bad I know, but I am missing my 4s...
Probably over indulged in the fish pie last night

 

[Nicksu]

My second day at 5.2 - no medication and despite having bread and a very few potatoes yesterday (and about 5 hours sleep last night!)

 

[JohnEGreen]

5.3 this morning.

5.5 this morning and I had a scone last night - lots of butter but no jam

Footnote: HbA1c just came through this morning at 38.

I hope you're pleased with 38. Seems good to me. Golly I miss scones...they were a major contributor to my downfall

6.2

Snap 6.2 . I'm happy as still in "normal range".

Thank's. Very pleased with 38. Scone was my first in over a year and not very big. Can't do this sort of thing too often.

Congratulations on the HbA1c - brilliant result!

Thank you. It's taken a while and due entirely to cutting carbs and exercising.

 

[Keesha]

5.3 this morning.

 

[asparagusp]

5.5 today again and the hba1c result also today. A drop of 20 points to 60 despite some scary readings in Spain and France in the last six weeks. The consultant was very pleased. When I started insulin over a year ago, it was 120!

5.2 this morning at the start of a fasting day.

 

[Johnjoe13]

6.5 and i'm well happy with that

Good Morning! 5.5 at 0525 today.

A bit surprising as I only had Pork Bone soup last night. I didn't have any red wine which might have been lowering my previous readings. I ate earlier than usual 6pm instead of 9pm and had an early night, but didn't sleep well. I retested at 0725 and reading had gone up to 5.8, so it might have been a liver dump. I'll have an iced coffee an test again after an hour.

Edit: Well I retested at 0915, an hour after the iced coffee and reading was 10.8! Aaaargh!
So it might have been a liver dump or the effect of the iced coffee. I should have checked the ingredients label which I have now done, and it contains 8% sugar, and wheat, rye barley and oats! I will avoid it next year.

5.2 this morning.

Good morning all. FBG 6.2 @ 0600

A lesson learnt.
