You just keep on giving!! I'll be thinking of you to. You're going to be worn out. Thanks again.
 
I always test at bedtime. It is important to me to see if my evening meal is completely back to normal, but mainly to see if my levels stay flat overnight. As I keep a lot of stats, I use the before bed and fasting reading differences. Currently, my average rise overnight (since 2nd March) is 0.2. That tells me I am not getting liver dumps on the whole.

If there is no or little rise between bed time and morning, meaning no liver dump, what does that mean? I understand one of my aims for losing that visceral fat in and round the liver and pancreas is to 'empty the bucket' that the liver is, presumably so it is less able to do dumps? But on the other hand I thought that liver dumps were normal even for non-diabetics, just that their dumps are mopped up faster thanks to superior insulin sensitivity.
 
6.6 mmol / L this morning. Lowest score for some time! Went to bead with a 6.1 mmol / L reading.

Happy with that! :)
Think this morning's test was before my liver dump. Also, helped by being in bed before midnight for the first time in a long time - even though the sleep was short.
 
hmmm 5.8 this morning... dinner went on late last night... .7.2 and 6.7 at bedtime.....
Friday!
Holiday next week......
 
8.4 this morning has phone call with diabetic nurse yesterday and am increasing insulatard by 2 units to 8 units a day to hopefully bring my sugar level down. I am exercising as much as I can and have reduced my carbs
 
7.0 this am.... busy day ahead ...hope you all have a great day :):p
