I seem to fall into the camp of good A1c but frustrating FBG so I am in this circle of playing catch up every day! Hugs.

@PenguinMum - Thanks for the Hugs! I had a prolonged period of the Sticky-Sixes, I was moaning then. Now with an overall average of 7.1, from May till now, I’m getting worried. I’m betting I’ll get a lower 6 come 2pm. Really hating this insomnia. Could having higher through-the-night numbers produce Insomnia? Or which comes first?

Ah that would be the chicken and the egg question. There are more questions than answers with Diabetes it seems and defo no one size fits all. At least we are trying to do our very best and thats something I have to remind myself of constantly.

Oh my. I just spent some time reading your history. Nasty diabetes experiences. And here’s me, grumbling about being stuck above 7.

6.6 at 6AM after the eating day. 7.8 just now... overnight average is 6.4.. I had less protein and a bit more fibre yesterday but the inconsistent result compared to when I had same intake few days back to get a morning reading in 4s leaves me clueless.

Fasting day today so it should become better.

Have a great day everyone. :)

That doesnt seem fair to me but isnt it just typical of this condition. At least we are all trying hard so we just have to keep on keeping on. Best wishes.
