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

Felt dread this morning. Last night I had rice, crisps, cheesecake because it was date night and I had no self control. This morning, 5.2!!! I’m impatient for my HBa1c now, hopefully they can give me some good news...
 
Hi John

I'm not sure if you are aware about the difference in timings.

Yes I know the libre takes time to catch up so I time the tests with about a 15 minute time interval when doing a finger prick and libre reading I do the prickometer test then wait a while and then note the libre reading.

By the way I've been left with a bit of a nasty rash in the shape of a ring where the first sensor was located hope that is not going to be the norm.
 
i got the rash after about 10 months of using the libre started putting them on the top of my bum cheek and no probs whatsoever x
 
Morning everyone. A 5.3 greeted me on my 65th birthday - Juneteen, Bojo's birthday and either my body, libre sensor or both are rogue. Both faces of Gemini it seems. Party on dudes and dudettes.
