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

[Tim55]

Morning All

6.3 for me today. In desperation I've gone back to my ALA/ vitamin B12 /vitamin B1 regime to try and get my low 5s and 4s back.

Off for another CT scan later...

5.2 today. About average for me.

 

[satindoll]

5.0 for me.....

 

[bigjim19]

But, it's still within range.

Can understand that but it is higher than normal ( av 6.0 ) yesterday was 6.8 so it is down since then but for weeks it's been on the average must admit though there's a lot going on around me at the moment so maybe that's effecting things

7.8 at 6.20 this morning

9.5 at 8am this morning, being good today. Heading up to London, so a lot of walking for me today.

9.1 this morning and 9.5 two hours after coffee and cream. Yesterday I had coffee and cream, a two egg omelette for lunch and smoked haddock and buttered sprouts for tea. No snacks, water to drink, no sign of any infections. Was 6.5 before I ate dinner and 7.4 after two hours. Had gone up to 8.3 before bed.
I am very, very confused.

S

hey you must create your own thread in the "ask a question" section, if you wan´t to start another subject, this thread is only for fasting/morning blood glucose and around that... because maybe 50 persons take part here the thread will soon miss focus if other discussions lead it astray

Sorry I just realised that I should have just put 9.1 on this thread and saved the waffle for somewhere else.

An improved 5.4 today (despite only 20 mins exercise yesterday - plus a couple of naughty cakes!)

 

[Freema]

just keep on going low carb and it will lower... if you are ill or have an infection your numbers can be higher from that, or in the cases where peoples pancreas do not produce enough insulin, in those cases the person will need added insuline for all future...

7.0 on the dot for me today.

After a while in the naughty corner it's time for you to get on the straight and LCHF again hope you had a great holiday, sounds like you relaxed a little - as we all should

Agreed. Straight and LCHF . Naughty corner only fun in short bursts.

An uncomfortable 3.3 this morning. Tramadol brings my bgs down, I think. No metformin again due to its side affects. So reducing my insulin today, again. Pain must really make a big difference not a small one!

Hope you feel better soon.

Sorry you're suffering Vicky. Gentle hugs winging your way.

Tuesday:
9.1 when I went to bed at midnight
10.8 @ 3.30am
10.1 @ 8.45am after a long sleep.

It'll come down.. I get the odd unexplained highs but they usually level out to my average.

Hope 6s aren't causing any complications @Tim55

Good morning everyone. 5.7 from me.

 

[Johnjoe13]

6.2 all good

 

[JuliaAR]

5.5 this morning. 4.7 yesterday - nearly fell through the floor as it never gets down to 4. anything! Must have been the 4 hours I spent in the garden!

Welcome to the first day of Autumn readings, 6.5 at 5:00 am.

Have got my averages down again last month, 30 day average was 6.22 and the 90 day average was 6.29.

I wonder if it will go much lower than these figures, I have got blood tests arranged for Friday so will be interesting to see what my hba1c is for the past three months.
