Bullies, discrimination of any kind, bad manners, parents who let their kids run amok & spoil things for everyone else, unkind spiteful people, being a clumsy clod, toast crumbs in the bed, cold feet!!

My fbg was 7.3 this morning from 6.8 at bedtime. I experience a higher fbg in the morning if it was lower the night before and vice- versa. Am on Glucovance 500/5 twice a day.

5.8 this morning...getting reasonably consistent now with the under 6.5 morning starts. This helped my the 11.30 level measured by my renal doctor (6.9) at my 6 week clinic to support my long held belief that I am not an idiot who randomly chucked his meds in favour of a diet only approach; the last reading being 16.9. Happy with that! Love to see smug faces change to one with raised eyebrows..never get tired of that. Interestingly, my new kidney function has also improved. Hmm...

Good morning. The atrocious weather woke me so early but at least it meant I remembered my early morning blood . 6.6

I hope everyone has a good day:)

Not being able to like beer anymore!!
7.3 this AM. That's high for me but expected because I decided "what the hell" last night and joined in with beer & pizza.
