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

6.6 post Merlot!
I guess mine wasn’t a good merlot. It was on special offer in Sainsburys, maybe that’s why.
Well done Prem51

Thanks @DJC3 ! Unfortunately my fbg was 7.2 at 0740 today, despite Merlot. Perhaps I should have had more!
I get mine at Sainsburys when they are doing a 25% off for 6 bottles promotion. I like the Californian Merlots which are lighter than the Australian Merlots.

Welcome @Kellylavelle. In terms of too high if you are just starting to test then we are all in the "I wouldn't start from here" category at first. What I would personally advise is to look for it to trend downwards but if you can get to 4.2 you are clearly getting it right at times. Many people will quote ideal levels but that can create "performance anxiety" so take readings, post here and pick and choose to whom you listen after careful consideration. Them's my onions anyhow! Good luck I am sure you will smash it!
