Hope you feel better soon.

6.6 at 8.25 am. Bedtime reading was 5.6 at 11.30 pm.

Best night's sleep I can remember in quite a while. Eight hours plus and no trips to the loo

Started taking my reading 1 month ago, after a massive telling off from my diabetic nurse, she said my average was 15 according to my blood test
Anyway 6.8 @ 05-15 my lowest reading so far.

Morning all.

Good morning @Hoyt man and congratulations on that milestone. Stick around and I am sure you will become our latest success story - provided you take absolutely no notice of me

Purely out of interest, those of you who live in the U.K.,do you have to buy your own meters, testing strips etc, or is this all supplied by the nhs? I left Scotland to live in Switzerland 40+ years ago and am somewhat out of touch, but it still interests me. Appreciate if anyone could take the time to bring me up to date. Sleep well
