5.3. High for me but I think I know why.
I had one of those Lidl low carb rolls last night. Spiked me +3.5 after two hours so I'm not having them again! They seem to work well for other folks but not for me apparently.

- 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!!
Morning Folks. A rather low for me 3.8 fasting. A tad concerning as I got no low BG warning signs. Usually I tend to get a cracking headache when my BG drops below 4.5. Not today though. Toast with Nutella & a nice cuppa sorted me out though. Have a good Wednesday everyone. Good health to us all.

AJ - Neither your profile, nor signature give any clues about your meds these days, so I've lost track of the details, forgive me.
Was your toast with nutella a hypo treatment, your chosen breakfast, influenced by your 3.8 or just brekkers?
If you felt fine, then treated the 3.8, what was your rationale, bearing in mind you could have been 4.4, allowing for an upward tolerance of 15%.
Perhaps your body is just notching down a level, as a result of your longer term control? When my bloods were reducing they didn't creep down, they notched, for no apparent reason, except a cumulative period of control, and a certain amount of weight loss.
