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

Don’t know if it is true, @ianpspurs , but it has been suggested that bad reaction to jab booster indicates good and active antibodies.

I had a bad reaction to my first jab ( Astra ) and felt worse than when I actually had Covid tested for my antibodies I had a strong line .

I'm booked in for my third jab this afternoon will then have booster jab six months from then I was unaware that the third jab is part of the primary vaccination now and not considered a booster jab.

I will see tomorrow if it has an effect on my FBG or not hope I do not have as severe reaction to it. as I did with the first two.
 
4.8 today. I had the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine yesterday under the new rules for vaccine participants. It's been almost a year since I had the Novavax vaccine on the vaccine trial.

so glad you’re feeling better. I have my booster on Saturday. Hope it is ok as we plan to visit in-laws Sunday…
 
Morning All. 7.3 after abrupt waking after nightmare. Awake around 5 and Mr Libre had me under 5. Oh well lots of tea required.
 
Here as a supportive friend - I can't justify using resources to measure bg instead of starving Afghan children just now. If not checking for 14 days causes problems it was a rubbish relationship anyhow. @DJC3 winner for fbg but hug for hunger and cold. @BrianDoc yep, that's how it gets ya. Same with A1c. Welcome to the crazy world of T2. @PenguinMum hug but we both know that doing the right thing, outcomes and emotions are totally separate. Great fbgs happen to people eating all the "wrong" stuff and vice versa.

5,9 on waking but …7.6 40 mins later with no food or drink in between (Libre measurements)
Hmmm body seems confused after 8 weeks low carbs (about 70 -90 a day)
 
5.6 this morning not feelimg very well after 3rd jab very didturbed night had to get up at 5 AM and hunt out some paracetomol.
Though so far it does not seem to have effected my blood sugar much. Even though 2 hours after the jab my level went from 5s to high 8s without eating anything as felt too sick to eat.
 
5.5 this morning was shattered last night so hit the duvet at 10:30pm. I am sure that the earlier night helps
