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

Today it's 6.8 for me and a dark, rainy morning here.
Don't be ashamed @RYU Hope you have an especially good day (with low post meal readings )

To be honest no idea what's going on at the moment. I took a pre-meal reading which said 14.2 even though I hadn't eaten or drunk anything, then took a post meal reading 2 hours later and it was 14.3.

My GF's claiming that it's either;

A} down to me being weird as normal

or

B} She has suggested that I'm an alien human hybrid probe that's here to investigate the earth.

Thinking about it I may need a new GF. This one's way too sarcastic for my own good.

She's just pointed out that no one else would put up with me. She may be right. Looks like I'm stuck with her.
 
9.9 this morning so still under 10 which has been my aim for this week. I've got a busy day ahead running a stall at a market (thankfully indoors). Just packing my salad to take instead of buying something there. Small changes but being more organised and planning ahead is helping me to feel less panicked and made the wrong (for me) choices.
 
I have been so busy, but measuring regularly! This morning it is 5.1
 
8.0. But done my back in yesterday, a lot of pain. Anticipate that levels are not going to be good. Not good when supposed to be trying to get under control
 
Hello! 6.3mmol/L this a.m. (what? 3days post glyburide now? )

@oldnevada,

Would you please start another thread about HBA1c rather than derailing this one as it is for the purpose of recording fasting blood sugar numbers.
 
Morning All

Had something of a shock last night after yesterdays confident posts as I saw a 9.6 before tea!

14 about midnight and only down to 7.5 this morning.

I am putting this down to the steroid injection i had in my knee yesterday as I looked back through my figures and saw the same pattern last time I had one, took about 3 days to come down again so we will what happens see this time.

Knee feels a lot better though, so I guess its not all bad.
 
Had reading of 6.3 last night then 6.1 this morning. Had breakfast took meds then had upset stomache. Later had 6.1 before lunch, one hour later I was shaking like mad, really bad. Tested and I was 3.9! Don't know what happened, ate usual healthy lunch think it was meds?
