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

Hi Becca59 we have just got back home from our walk even with osteoarthritis in back and knees I won’t give in and guess what my BG is 4.4 at 1.55pm fantastic cheese salad for lunch I’m so very grateful for your breakfast suggestions.Kind Regards K
 
Hi Marianne sorry to see you have a foot ulcer and hope it heals quickly for you, I totally agree it is a long haul thing the Diabetes and needs constant monitoring to regain control but perseverance will always win so good on you. Best Wishes K

Hi, it healed very well and I was discharged from the foot clinic in November.
 
7.6 - Well, this is interesting, after a self-indulgent self-induced sugar rush, it involved chocolate biscuits and hot chocolate - totally nice -, I got a, yikes, 14.5 at 5:30pm. Yes, thoroughly washed and dried fingers. Then, and only 2 hours later, I’m back to 7.5. And, well this morning it’s this 7.6. Does this possibly mean that my EndoSys has finally “got with the program” and becoming obedient to my wishes? If so, I’m happy with this.
 
Good morning
Phone Larry 7.9
Contour 5.7
Rang appointment line yesterday to be told could be waiting another 6 months, DSN is going to try & get me seen quicker (libre graph look like I’ve climbed Everest every morning then jumped off the top) mile walk with a friend planned when it’s light before the dentist
Have a good day everyone
 
4.8 this morning. My 'normal' range.

I also managed some decent sleep last night, which has been a rarity recently. Yesterday I was in a miserable grump most of the day so feeling almost human this morning is a vast improvement!
 
Morning All. 6.7 so yo yoing again. @Estragon great comeback but watch it its so pesky. @Marianne67 good about the foot healing and today’s score! @karen8967 thanks for yesterday’s wisdom. @ultradad hope you and your daughter don’t get too sick. Lots of snuggling with videos. Take care out there, stay safe, stay well All.
Has to be a "winner" for the upbeat response so positive and caring.
 
So I think these test strips may be measuring about .5 of a point below my Tee2 and my old Sinocare Safe Accu - if it is accurate all I can say is - WOW!. 4.5 this morning!
 
4.6 this morning. Not feeling to bad tbh. Make sure you got throat lozengers or spray handy as this new varient loves the throat. All 4 of us have a sore throat of varing degrees, i am using ones that got zinc in :)
 
Thanks Ryhia..your scores are so consistently great whatever meter you use :)
Thanks but we both know that D is a truly fickle friend and achieving numbers we like can be more luck than good management. :(
