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

4.9 at which point I feel tingling. I think I am better in the 6's.
 
Morning All. 6.6 Libre said 5.8 but then it had me in 3s for couple of hours o/n so who to believe! @prhayes welcome and great start. @Sarahlouxoxo take care and rest, hope its mild, good score! @SaskiaKC yes its on we go, clapping each other on the way. Have a good Thursday. Remember IT’s still out there, use your own onions.

well went for my appointment with eye specialist yesterday morning and it seems the NHS will fund the removal of the cataract on my right eye but not the left eye good news is i will have one good eye in a few weeks time.
 
unfortunately 7.5 this morning, very different to yesterday morning - taken at the same time following similar period of fasting (10 hours) - it was exactly the same as my post prandial check after dinner last night - still geting used to all of this, but early days...
 
After a breakfast of a cup of coffee and a slice of toasted low carb bread blood sugars at 9.6 @ 9 AM .

@PenguinMum I suggest you ring up and complain. This sensor may be faulty. By complaining you will probably get sent a free replacement and will be able to assess whether this particular sensor is indeed faulty or whether Libre sensors will always behave like this for you. Good luck!
