Sorry you are having a bad time at the moment(me too).Any thoughts on what could be causing your higher numbers?

Don't feel very well generally and having poor sleep also only low carbing sporadically. All these things will be impacting on my numbers .

4.9 this morning

Still in the 11's with 11.1 I suppose I could say that it is an improvement on last few days ...at a stretch

G'Day eh?! from Montreal. My waking BG is 5.5mmol/L.

Slept a bit better/longer for a change. I was at the Blood Donor clinic yesterday. It's the first time I had near normal systol reading for my screening BP. Normally I just squeeze through screening. Must be the weight loss. That's what the nurse said.

6.6 this morning, cannot seem to shift this headache. Sinus is playing into it, had buttered asparagus yesterday. As soon as I have butter, I have a sinus headache and slightly swollen on left side of nose. I need to kick butter on the head.

Evening @Lainie71. Have you kept a food diary? If not, might be an idea to start one for a few weeks.

We're all inclined to look for patterns that explain our symptoms, when in reality what we are seeing could be coincidence. Having reduced carbs already, it would be hard for you to forgo butter as well.

Good morning all
4.3 mmol on waking at 6.00 this Saturday morning.
