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


12.1 after a light lunch today about 10 gms of carb. . Things are getting a bit serious now.
 
Do you wash your hands before going for the test?
 
Good evening all. Up at dawn for a ecg at the other end of the country. BG 5.2 this morning. Hope everyone’s tests went well.
Nice numbers @Canvaspic and I hope all went well with ECG or if results come later all goes well. What is really special about this thread, at least, is the concern members such as yourself express for others even when they themselves have concerns to deal with.
 
Hi everyone just a quick question how many hypos per day or week would you have? (I’ve now had 3 in two days)
 
Due to excitement ? Always had bad hypos at Christmas when I was young .
Honestly Phil I have no clue all three times I’ve randomly checked and I’m low and no matter what I’ve eaten this evening I can’t seem to get higher than 6.6
 
Sorry to hear about your troubles gaining control but really pleased for you that you eventually got to single figures @johnpol. Take care
Thank you, been a bit of a strange one today, its gone back up to 11, definitely going to bed now, tomorrow is another day on the merry go round
 
Well still off topic a bit but have gone from 12.1 and then 9.0 after lunch to 9.7 before dinner to 5.4 after dinner what a day.
