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

11.1 which is a massive improvement for me. I completed the DAFNE course this week and before that my fasting bg was always 17+
 
4.8 this morning. 5.2 afternoon.
 
 
Morning everyone, 3.4 today at 6.00am, had 10 grams of fast acting carb tested at 6.40am down to 3.1.
 
3.7 ...after another reduction of slow acting insulin last night! I think it is time to see what happens if I don't take any short acting insulin at all after low carb breakkie...
 
Hi Dave,14, I am Type 2 welcome to the forum, best thing you will ever do by the way. I am on metformin 500mg 2 daily just changed last week to the SR ones. I think it is best if you do your BG readings in a morning before you have a shower or anything else. Others on here will tell you the same. Good luck
 
6.5 mmol. Statins to blame, started taking them again as I've got a cholesterol check coming up :-0

Stopped taking mine...when my doc saw my very good results...he just said well whatever your doing ...keep doing it
 
Usually 5.3 to 5.7 every day, 16ml of Lantus before bed seems to be working

Brilliant news. I 'm just trying to avoid another round of having to get blood tests every 1 to 2 months to monitor cholesterol :-0
