5.1 when I went to the loo at just before 6am. 4.8 when I decided it was really time to get up.

I'll count that as steady at 5 I think, given the vagaries of meters (and me, and mornings ... and probably other things beginning with 'm')

Yup, @mojo37 , hope you can conquer this soon.
Out in sympathy with a whopping 8.7 today. Confused, and peeved, but the good(ish) news is that my home test HbA1c came in at 40. Not that either meter or HbA1c can be trusted. All a mystery, still, after 17 years of T2.
A bit more lounging about, with only intermittent bursts of energy today, as my intuition is telling me to take it easy.
Thank you some of it is a hangover from Christmas overindulgence and some from this non Covid cough .
