I had a spurious 13 reading last week but 2 hours later it was down - could it just be the time at which fasting readings are taken as you hinted.This morning:
Blood Glucose 7.9 mmol / L
Blood Ketones 0.2 mmol / L
At bed time:
Blood Glucose 5.2 mmol / L
Blood Ketones 0.2 mmol / L
Think this morning's test is past my dawn phenomenon hence the high reading compared to yesterday's early start. Also think the stress yesterday outweighed the fact it was the lowest amount of carbs consumed in a day for a couple of weeks. Disappointed doesn't begin to describe how I feel about this morning's reading! Had hoped to be in early 6s! Just going to have to suck it up and move forward - story of my life lately ... blah ... blah ... blah.
Hi Nomis,
I can see you have a bit of a valley ride for now, and I can truly sympathize with you rembering not long ago the agony of work and family relatd major stress, which sent me to many unwanted GP appointments, some of them problems still lurking around...
I know it sounds cliche, but cheer up Sir, there's always some sunshine left for you behind the thick clouds ;-)
All the best to you :-D

You're not alone my Friend!Thanks for your positive thoughts.
I've been riding this valley for nearly five years now. It was undoubtably the stress in the very deep part near the beginning that caused my diagnosis!
There has been deeper and shallower parts since.
Just seems to be a particularly deep and treacherous stretch at the moment.
I've said it before on here:
Tough times never last but, tough people do. I'm just wondering if I'm tough enough!?!
Not usually one to complain. Just feeling weary from it all. Especially the fact that when I need to rely on other people to step up to the mark, they're consistently letting me down.
Keep on keeping on, eh?!
*forces smile*
Was that one vegetable a marzipan carrot? ;-)Happy Thursday folks. A 5.4 for me this morning. Not too bad considering the slice of Carrot cake I had with a latte last night. At least it contained a vegetable.
To all you lovely people who today don't feel too good, for one reason or another, this one's for you. Hope it brings a smile. X
