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

bsl 7.3 mmol/L

but didn't test to 1.35pm as hadn't been well hadn't eaten or taken meds and slept all day till 1.20pm
 
9.1 yesterday and today little under the weather ( in more ways then one with this stormy rain lol ) so maybe not feeling great is impacting on my numbers .
 
Hello all,

Haven't posted for a couple of days. Had my first shot of Biontech/Pfizer yesterday and so far, so good, a bit of a sore upper arm, but blood sugars are fine (even though they went up to about 8.0 briefly during and after vaccination, the highest they've been in the last three years -- probably due to the excitement).

5.0 the day before yesterday, 5.5 yesterday and 5.3 today.

@mojo37 and @annabell1 -- Hugs for not feeling well. Hope tomorrow will be a better day for both of you.
@HeliGary -- Congrats on passing the flying medical. Really well done and a tribute to your hard work.
@Freema -- Numbers are still looking good. Wonderful achievement. I remember back then you exercised a lot to control blood sugars. Is this the route you have chosen this time too?

Good news on having the vaccination, lack of side effects and no adverse effect on sugars. Congratulations all round.
