6.3 was 8.2 before bed but i was in bed most of yesterday with a bad cough and head. Is the rise normal when you dont feel well?

 

[ickihun]

Fbg 9.7 and I don't know why.
Mind u when i did my insulin there was a problem with it's tip and only got half the insulin I twisted for. I wonder if same happened last night?
I should have tested again just before sleep.
God if a type 1 had that they could be dead!

Like I've had no insulin at all! Argh!!!

I think you definitely need insulin.

Yes an infection or illness is likely to raise your bs reading. I went up to 8s and even a 9 when I had a sore throat and cold.
It should fall again as you get better.

Good morning, 5.8.

Treated myself to the purchase of some cloudy bay, even better Sav Blanc from the original founder of CB, a beautiful ozzy s

hiraz and two amazing bottles of gin - both of which won best worldwide gin in 2013/14

Morning All

6.7 for me today, probably due to some bad eating choices while enjoying myself yesterday....

 

[amgrundy]

Bless you @berylc . Is it witch hazel that takes bruising out quicker. I swear by sudocrem cream, the sooner you apply the less bruising. Wish id said sooner. Sorry.

Hi ickihun, yes it is witch hazel that takes the bruising down its very effective.
