4.6 this morning

Last night it was exactly 8 years since I joined this forum - I was posting because my husband was in hospital in DKA having just been diagnosed with diabetes. I was scared and had no idea what the future held for us. I certainly didn't think that 8 years later I would be posting here daily! Not scared of diabetes any more though

The cat won't go out as there's a gale blowing and I'm on a new pot of strips I have 5.6 this morning. The first five in a while. Good morning all.

6.8 this morning. Had chips, bread, mocha, and other bad things that tasted sweet. Might not be as bad today but who knows. We’re having a little holiday in the east neuk of fife.

I am newly diagnosed T2- two weeks ago - and my blood glucose this morning is 12.0 from 9.0 yesterday. I am a bit sad as a result. I need to get it to under 7

 

[Jordi77]

Morning all my sugar's are 3.2 this morning

 

[JohnEGreen]

FBG of 5.0 this morning.

@Jordi77 3.2 is a little on the low side are you OK. Or is that normal for you.


@davidopong 2 weeks is a very short time from diagnosis so don't be sad it takes time to bring your sugars down and FBG is nearly always the last to come down. So chin up give it time and you will be fine.
