Hi all newly diagnosed about 6 weeks ago with t2, at 7.15am i was 15.8, been testing for 6 days now and lowest reading ive had was 13.2 is this normal

yes it is normal if one does not count the grams of carbs in ones foods , it is essential to blood glucose control to stay under 150 grams of carbs in total in a day... some need to go even lower to get normal numbers... metformin only does very little and is more like a stick to lean at and not a real cure in any way.. the good news is that most people with type 2 can get their numbers of blood glucose level down into a normal only by counting carbs... so the culprit is to grab the bull by the horns and understand that it is mainly the carbs one has problems with

5.9 this morning. Didn’t test yesterday as moving house. Left early to wash floors before furniture and boxes arrived.
Don’t know where we’re going to put all this stuff. Oh well another day of unpacking.

A 5.0 this morning, but very very tired. Taking little one to doctors to be checked for either chicken pox or slapped cheek. No itchy spots just a rash and very rosy cheeks. It's obvious as he has pale complexion.

7.2 this morning. Feeling a bit glum about that.

Don't. Some days I'm way off your 7.2 . Celebrate your great fbgs. Remember the liver adds 1-2mmol/l.
