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

Morning all, 7.0 today. Had a very bad evening as my digestive system has started to struggle with digesting meat, especially chicken. I have had this before, so will spend the day exploring lower carb plant based meals. Thank you DJC3 for the kind comments yesterday, much appreciated.

Don't take reading too soon after exercise, especially if you significantly raise heart rate. I read somewhere to allow an hour but your mileage may vary!

Ok maybe that's why because I take readings mostly an hour after exercise. Thanks
 
4.0 - Yay - properly back to my usual morning readings - cold STILL lingering so can't have been that pushing my fasting numbers up - must have been end of term stress then (or some other mysterious diabetic reason - as Hubby's consultant says trying to work out why will drive you insane)
