Morning All. 7.2 when I got up at 0700 agreed by Libre and finger test but I was 5.7 at 0530 when I woke up. So thats interesting! My liver seems to be on summertime. Had a steady line before 6 all night.

I did not mention but average day reading was again high for me too at about 6.5 for a fasting day, so this theory does hold some water in my humble opinion.

Lol! Isn’t that the truth!

Just when you think you have it all figured out it does something random that doesn’t fit the pattern.

7.4 - Well, look at that! Better than 8.5 must be the more “rested” night I had. Sleep is important to Diabetics, yes?

5.1 better, but there was red wine involved last night so thats probably the reason.
