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

Not posted for a few days.

Readings haven't been great, too many carbs.

My only excuse is that I've had 2 blocked ears for a week following ear infection in left one. Now right one is really painful, but taking painkillers and putting in lots of drops.

Already had a course of antibiotics and attempted micro suction. Having to go privately to see ENT on Tuesday, as NHS waiting list is so long. GP thinks I may have perforated eardrum.

Had to work from home since middle of last week as I can't hear anything. Fortunately I've got a job that allows this.

I don't think I've ever written such a long post

Anyway, back on topic. Today was 7.5, yesterday 7.2 and the day before 6.3.

5.9 today. I'm delighted. Because last night I was out with the girls. Designated driver so no alcohol but 3 courses food wise. Now still find it difficult in restaurants and tend to go for safe options. Usually ceasar salad! But last night what a treat I had. Portobello mushrooms in stilton sauce to start. Chicken and chorizo kebab with salad (sweet chilli sauce came in a side dish and not smothered all over kebab). And a wonderful cheese board to finish. Bloods 5.5 after 2 hours and not much of a rise this morning. Happy bunny.

That menu sounds delicious x

Down to 6.1 at 0610hrs today which is a drop in the right direction. What a difference it makes when outside temps are ‘only’ in the 20s. Who would have thought???
