good morning everyone

4.1 today for me

 

[ukuleleplayer]

T2 Contolled by diet only. No drugs. 7.0 before breakfast. Not bad. It'll go down as the day progresses. Average of all readings for 3mths is 6.6.

 

[Wayne18000]

7.6 again

After a night of bad dreams, it wasn't a good idea to watch the late night news before bed at 12.30 am, so a very restless night and went from a 5.6 at midnight to an 8.0 this morning at 6.30
Long walk to work this morning for punishment, too windy to cycle!
Have noticed that I get cramp in my calf muscle if my sugar levels are high. Low numbers, no cramp.

Hi berylc. I sometimes get calf cramp too. It's usually during the early hours, so put it down to dawn phenomenon. Don't think it's unusual...just painful.

A 5.9 this morning Wasn't great before bed but with a decent sleep I'm more myself. Fast heart beat rearing its ugly head when lying down again. It might be too much levothyroxine again as I've lost approx 4kg in a month. Seeing specialist next week. Hba1c, thyroid, kidneys and liver bloodtest tomorrow morning. Let's see!

9.0 @ 6.15 Full of the cold, so looks like my liver is trying to 'help' me by dumping sugar. What a way to start 10 days off work on holiday
Off to Stornoway (Lewis, Western Isles) for Hebceltfest and the weather is awful

Oh honey. I hope you have a jolly hollibobs. Not fair that you're poorly. I'm waving my "sun stick" for you, it might help.

 

[callyandy]

Haven't taken metformim for 3 days now
Sticking to low carb /no carb so far so good

4.9 today - was about to head off for morning walk when I tripped on a bag left in a ridiculous spot by "helpful" teenager. Horrible feeling I've broken a toe So no walk and limping I to work to grovel to boss and then I think it's the walk in centre

Sorry honey, bad luck.
