I feel for you. Not too many things I hate more than having a toothache.

Even going to the dentist is preferable

5.7 this morning. Still got sore throat and feel rubbishy. I think we all need to move to warmer climes for the Winter.

Quite a common pattern unfortunately, dawn syndrome. Your liver has raised your glucose levels in the morning so that you have the necessary energy resources for the day's activities.
One of the main reasons why the morning's fasting levels are the hardest to predict.

4.8 before dinner
5.7 after dinner
5.7 fasting
@fionamarie its DP, dawn phenomenon, there is a lot of info available on the forum in regards to this. You might need to eat some light low carb snack like some nuts just before you go off to sleep.
@pavlosn the pics you post everyday makes the day so much brighter for everyone, we almost always have a dull morning.

You need to try the red wine experiment in another thread. It's very good. If it doesn't help your bg you won't care anyway
