Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

Good Morning! 5.3 at 0640 today.
I had fish and chips and a mince pie last night. Instead of frozen oven chips I cut up a potato, parboiled the chips for 5 minutes. Cooled them in fridge, then oven baked them. That might have reduced the carbs. They were nice and I'll do that again.

I can eat reheated potato without a spike @Prem51 .I'm so more relaxed about my spikes too.
 
Haven't tested yet but about to get up. It may be high as toddler has been up throughout the night. He's so sensitive, he knows I'm worried about tomorrows scan. Even though I'm trying to hide it from the 9yr old.

Wow. Fbg 5.0. Now that is a surprise. Maybe I need to do my night job again on top of looking after a 2yr old all day like 7yrs ago?
First time I'm gobsmacked. lol
Painkillers and rest must be helping me out.

My own DP starts around 8.00 am and lasts till 12.0, but then for years I worked for an American firm and started work quite late 10-11 but finished late too - perhaps shifted my body clock a bit as a result ?
 

Delighted for you ickihun. Wishing you all the very best for a good result. Whatever it is, we are here for you, so keep your chin up.
