One question, what unit are people reporting these numbers

I realised that I have been writing my mmol/l readings. So just want to confirm what units are being used.

5.9 this morning at 5am
6.0 at 10am

The culprit is a meal out last night. Tapas but not carb free obviously. And it included a dish of nachos with chilli beef cheese and jalapenos. The 3 large glasses of red might not have helped. One yes but not 3!!!I'm sure the nachos are the culprit though ad I did polish off almost the whole dish on my own! I was feeling quite hungry. Will have a very low carb day today just trying to get myself out of bed (it was a late night) with a promise of eggs and bacon which I'm making for myself. It's at times like these that I could do with a live in chef!!!

Update: It's 7.3 just before my eggs n bacon at midday!!! I know both the excess wine and nachos are to blame. Steak for me next meal out....and iced water!!!

Rachel I've just made scrambled eggs n bacon and tested before I eat. It's at 6.9 now!!! I'm thinking it's the consequences of yesterday's meal out but it's nearly midday! Is it usual for it to keep going up?

4.8 (on wake up), 8.1 - 90 min after breakfast
