What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

Mine was strange this morning. Tested at 7.5 which is high for me at any time so tested again and it was 6.0. Just goes to show that you shouldn't always trust your meter!
 
11.2 this morning Hospital yesterday, caught finger in a bin on the train and felt unwell last night. Hoping for a better reading tomorrow. Take care guys
 
14.0. Got up at 4.15am feeling hungry, so ate 2 slices of toast with butter/jam + herbal tea with slice of lemon.
 
4.3 today....have not posted for a few days as some of you will know had a mishap over insulin and injected large amount of wrong one,hypos,hypos,hypos,....thank you for all the encouragingly comments....today I feel like me!!!!
 
I was 4.6 this morning. 6.1 before bed. Before bed to waking is always pretty constant, it's having a lie in that catches me out. If my 'fasting test' is after about 10.30 it will be 8-11 regardless of what I was before bed. Have to have +1 unit with breakfast and often -1 unit with evening meal unless it's a carb heavy treat meal like birthday pizza.
