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

After a very restless night with the remains of a cold and difficulty breathing, so had to use Beconase nasel spray and Ventolin inhaler. Nothing I shouldn't have eaten yesterday and 22 hrs of fasting.
14.1 at 07.15 not good. Very bad leg cramp through the night too.

A very pleasant fbg 6.1 with no liver block but a up and down day yesterday. A very informative afternoon/evening about my hopefully upcoming bariatric surgery. :) :) :)
No hypos for 2 days too :) :) :)

Sounds like your liver may be producing glucose. Perhaps try and keep a food diary to discover the culprit. I find that eating any meat protein earlier in the day and having something like a baby bell cheese, a few pork scratchings or a little low release carb before 9pm helps. Red wine is good also :)

Drink water. You may also need a bit of salt. Feel for you as I am up and down most nights with leg cramps.
 
5.0 at 0500 this morning. Spent the day yesterday riding round the Yorkshire Dales :)

Woken up by really bad cramp in left calf after a night of weird dreams. Just over 5 wks until son's wedding, so starting to worry about what could go wrong (probably won't), so have now got cold sores on my lip and had migraine yesterday.... But not comfort eating :) Same stress pattern when my daughter got married.
