Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

[Gezzabelle]

Good morning troops....5.0 this cloudy kind of day....where the heck has summer got to????

 

[Pasha]

5.8 I opened a new pot of strips yesterday and all my readings have been about 0.5 higher then expected.

Its all part of your potty training. Different plots for different pots. Anyway the important thing is the trend in the results ie stable .going up or going down.

A whopping 7.4 this am, didn't eat many carbs at all yesterday in fact I had an apple, avocado and a lidl roll! The only thing I will say is I woke up having a tropical shower so don't know whether sugars had gone low but I'm on metformin so shouldn't have a hypo or my liver just decided to do a massive glycogen dump!

 

[emptyplate]

7.3 mmol / L this morning.
9.0 mmol / L seven and a half hours earlier!

Enough said!

It's very rare but, still possible to have a hypo caused by metformin. What was your Blood Glucose on going to bed and did you test when you woke in that "Tropical shower?"

Hi normisthenan my bs before bed was 6.5 but I'd not long had something to eat. The bs reading this am was within 10mins of said tropical shower as was getting up.

Don't quote me on this but, I'd suggest it wasn't a Liver dump.

Perhaps an allergic reaction to the now "infamous" Lidl (other brands are available) roll?

P.S. I'm not a 'nan' nor a 'naan' nor a 'narn' LOL

 

[orchid5]

Oops lol.

God knows what it was ladies tropical showers well over for me, unless since being diagnosed all my hormones are up the shoot!
