77 mg/dl == 4.3 mmol/l
But blood pressure is 65 - 95 and still gaining weight
mysteries...

Weight gain could be caused ny an under active thyroid.

 

[asparagusp]

Well it's now three weeks of exceptional readings on the whole. 4.3 today and suspect I will be decreasing the Lantus once again shortly!

The weight gain seems seems started in august., tyrod exams made last year, with good results.

@tina_marie - stop feeding him until he's done his FBGs! (And if he's feeding himself, lock the fridge and the pantry!)

[ellagy]

11.1 on rising at 10.00. I have shingles and that probably explains it...not that it very much matters to my bloods!

I'm sorry for your high BG @debrasue but you do make me laugh .... I'll be trying not to collide with chocolate today!

8.2 but "this morning" was closer to lunchtime , it was 7.3 before I went to bed at 3.00 am and I spent all yesterday after lunch between 5.6 and a peak of 8.2 which is a vast improvement on my early readings.


I would be very pleased with any morning readings under 7, its only happened once , though I am finding more and more of my day is now spent between 5.6 and 8 which is encouraging, I'm hoping that the morning numbers might com down naturally eventually as I lose the weight. I am happy to let that take a little time if it keeps me off the drugs.

It might even be the onset of shingles which has been messing with your BGs recently...
