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

[ickihun]

Really pleased the dn was so good and reassuring, must have taken some of your stress away. Hope you can get some help with the pain now.

Yes.
A fbg of 5.4 at 3am but a 6.9 now thanks to liver.
I just hope my GP will prove to be as useful. Fingers crossed.

She was great. I must have the best dn in the land. A fantastic nurse. She reassured me and helped me understand that until pain gone I'm facing continuing high bgs. . no matter how much insulin I take. My new hba1c has jumped up to 58 from 48. She wasn't worried as we know why.
Not being able to walk does effect it and horrific pain.
Hoping GP has some pain relief suggestions. Codeine with co-codamol and anti-inflammatory ibuprofen isnt working. I'm in agony trying to walk.
Swollen stomach for months was painless but not anymore. Infection has improved. Stomach, pelvic spasms are back without buscupan. Scan being escalated to Monday morning, thank god.
Just need some good pictures.

Hope all goes well. You’re having a bad time at the moment.

Good morning
6.4 @ 8.30am.
Even after having a Chinese yesterday lunchtime my bgs were only 3.3 by early evening - I'm usually hypo by then but I wasn't last night. After evening meal I was only 3.7 so did not take any insulin (prior to evening meal.) and had a bit of chocolate last night as I don't like my b.s. being that low. But they're back up this morning so have injected insulin as normal.

6.5 today back in the sixes for 2 days now hopefully back in control! Can only think it was probably the high carb food eaten over the bad weather and taken a week or so to go out the system

Recorded 5.4 which happens to be a drop in bg two hours after breakfast of scrambled eggs, tomatoes onion. I need an explanation for the drop in bg whereas one would expect a rise. Over to you forum members.
