Lowest ever:
7.3 @ 8.20am
(must have been that large G&T last night!)
Didn't know that Gin had that effect! I thought it was just red wine. But if it works for you what a happy side effect:D

I read everyone else's numbers and forgot to post my own!:wacky:. 6.6 this morning, but life is a bit stress at the mo so happy with that:happy:
@callyandy I forgot to test yesterday morning too. Gulp! When I remembered it was before lunch and a 7.8 with no liver block or breakfast. So came to conclusion either 4.8 or 5.8 as always rise at least 2mmol/l from a liver dump and no breakfast. No hypo feelings so i was happy with my conclusion.
Fbgs! I'm dreading mine next week with insulin change over.

We are all allowed a treat now and again. Mine would have been higher. Well done on your 7.2 :)
