5.7 today, although it was taken as usual about 20 minutes after I got out of bed.

A surprisingly high (for me) 7.1 this morning, and it wasn't a bad test as I was up to 7.7 after LCHF brekkie. Could it be due to my bad back/hip/leg as I've been taking ibuprofen for 2 days already?

Bit late, but 6.5 today. Grrrr
Feeling flat today, need to eat a proper meal yet. Not been motivated enough... just grazed on cheese, nuts and some salami out of the fridge.

Hi @Evelynross. Between 5-7 fasting IS good. You might find some forum members are used to having lower numbers now having mostly got on top of their diet etc. So that's probably why some people may put "Grrrr" or a
when posting their FBG. But please don't let other people's results put you off posting your own. It's not a competition. My FBG this morning was 6.5, which is high FOR ME, as I'm normally around 5.0 give or take. That's how this disease is sometimes. For many diabetics, EVERYTHING from stress to hot weather affects blood glucose levels. It can be a right old pain. Hope that gives you an okay explanation. Best wishes.
