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

Status
Not open for further replies.
6.4 this morning - went out for an impromptu meal last night so did not finish eating until at least 9.00. Meal included garlic bread with the starter and potatoes with the main but no sweet. I was 7.5 at 11.00 so not too bad I guess.

Am assuming this is mm/l? Anything above 8 is steadily doing damage. Are you on medication? If you can't get your numbers below 8 by diet and exercise alone you really need to get some urgent medical advice.

I am allergic to all dairy products, I can cope with a tiny amount of lactose free products but not there cream. I am also allergic to coconut, palm products and freshwater fish eg salmon. I use soya milk and alpro as dairy alternatives

Crumbs... poor you... doesn't leave much, does it? No wonder you get bored with breakfast.... :( What is the difference between fresh and saltwater fish? Can you eat Quorn? Their sausages are nice and it's a good source of protein... you could have sausage and mushroom, bacon and tomatoes... :) As if life wasn't difficult enough.... you stay cheerful though, which is cool... :)

Morning,

7.6 today.

Good Luck. Patsy.

Feeling tired today, (just fibromyalgia) so it is a struggle having the motivation to prepare food, but I will get on with it. Sausages in the oven at the moment, may have with mushrooms and tomatoes for a late breakfast.

Hello. Nice to be missed. A few problems since the week before Xmas. Some being sorted and some not. One or two are work in progress. Symptoms and slide effects cross over so bit of a nightmare. Finished chemotherapy in August but still recovering and off work. Anyway off topic so sorry for that.

I hope you feel much more the thing very soon.... you must still be exhausted.... such a rubbish thing to be dealing with...
 
Yeah I can have quorn. Freshwater fish is trout, salmon,crayfish and any fish that is river breed.

Sorry can't help there... Hysterectomy at 40 but still have ovaries so that might just explain some weeks of higher readings that seem to have no other explanation...

I haven't been testing for very long but have found that my numbers go a bit higher & just kind of sit there fairly steadily a few days before & a few days in.
 
Yesterday 8.1 mmol / L from 7.9 mmol / L previous evening.

This morning 7.6 mmol / L from 5.9 mmol / L only four and a half hours earlier.

Too old, but It makes perfect sense... maybe you all need to note in your diaries for a couple of months and see what the results are... how interesting... :)
 
6.2... sigh....
