@LittleWolf we have to work hard to get our 6s. None diabetics are in their 6s from time to time. Your doctors blood test will be better proof. What number was that?
Have you a meter to test for your 6.3?

Mine took a while to settle after stopping Metformin, don't worry - it will come down if you keep good control

My BG was 8.5 at 2.30 (got up VVV early to go to Billingsgate!) and then just tested it again and it's 9.1!! Not eaten anything yet so why is it higher?!!Have a look around the forums and have a read at successes. I find a great place to start. Ask questions in ask question forum. There are thousands of members who want to help. Enjoy!
See you tomorrow morning here.

@DEB260173 Probably due to 'Dawn Phenomenon' where your liver dumps stored glucose into your bloodstream as you wake to get you going for the day.

If it continues to rise, ask if your metformin being increased would help?
My BG was 8.5 at 2.30 (got up VVV early to go to Billingsgate!) and then just tested it again and it's 9.1!! Not eaten anything yet so why is it higher?!!
Otherwise its just the variant on your meter. They all have them.
Well done for remembering to test that early.

Yep, I can totally identify with this - I've had to stop buying them because once I start chomping, I cannot stop!7.2, bought a kilo of cherrys at 2pm yesterday, all gone by 4
