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

I am T2 from the 11th-09-19 to today 18th-09-19 my fasting levals are as follows 13.7 - 12.7 - 21.3 - 21.8 - 21.8 - 17.8 - 18.7.
I was on Metaformin FR and SR but it coursed havac with stomach now on Gliclazide 80mg twice a day
 
7.1 this morning, highest reading I have had in 3 weeks. Had a really bad night's sleep, woke up feeling very tired. Last night was a low carb meal a 5pm. Was 6.1 I hour after and 5.2 2 hours after. Don't understand why it's so high today, I have had lower readings every morning for weeks :(

A bad night's sleep can affect your BG

A bad night's sleep usually causes mine to go up - so does a lie in - strange that!

Anyone else have it always high in morning no matter what I’ve eaten the night before.
Ranges between 8 and 9.8

Maybe that is the "phenomenon" part of "dawn phenomenon." My FBG seems to have nothing to do with what I ate or drank the night before or how much sleep I got.

6.9 this morning after eating better yesterday than for the two previous days.
