Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.

Pricking my finger for a BG test. Been doing it for years, it doesn't really hurt - but I still hate it!

6.1 this morning, though usually in the high 5.x's This does sometimes concern me TBH since the DVLA warning limit for driving is 5.0 and the "must not drive" limit 4.0. Don't have glucose monitoring, only finger prick test, so don't know exactly how low I go overnight.

T2D treated with metformin and insulin

G'Day from Montreal. I woke to a BG of 4.6 mmol/L this a.m. (05:30 EST)

Early 6 km run routine with three sprints. My BP was 97/60, Yikes. Maybe my MD will take me off the Lisinopril?
