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

Morning all. 6.1 this morning. Not a happy bunny.
 
4.8 before breakfast, lots of headaches lately, is this normal? Or because I am on LCHF diet?
 
T2 11.1 before bed, then FBG this morning of 9.4
Diabetic Nurse informs me i will be going on to Meds on Wednesday.

Don't worry about going onto meds. Your FBG will come down. It's more important to have good overall numbers ON medication, than high numbers without. The risk of diabetic complications isn't worth being med free. It doesn't mean you've failed. And that goes for everyone. I've seen too many members, who post on this thread, struggle for a long time with high blood glucose whilst trying to gain good glycaemic control. There's no shame. Good luck.
 
Morning everyone, fbg 5.3- phew! Yesterday's high fbg must have been a faulty strip or something, BG levels were steady 5s throughout the day.
