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

7.7 - Well, I did have a 4.4 yesterday afternoon. So, my EndoSys kinda knows WHAT to do, just gets “seduced” by the glamour of the lights and a promise of stardom and notoriety. Yeah, right….
 
Back on topic. A rather excruciating 17.0 from me.. @Pipp ? All I need is a working basal.. :hilarious:

@ianpspurs , where is yer lancet or sensor these days?? ;)
Hug for that. Lancets in two bathrooms but stabbo tells me nothing useful these days IMHO. Almost all meals I will now eat give no rise, sometimes a fall, and never +2. I rejected those and accepted LC as largely Ian unfriendly long ago. Swipey, boxed by my bed, frazzles in CT/MRI, allegedly, but all those may be done for a while. @Pipp told you but 2nd chances are always good. Go Team D.
 
Hmmm, yeah.. Tamed it back this morning. Alarm chirped at 3.8. It rose to 4.1. Meter said 4.2.
Just seeing how it trends before I reach for any form of treatment..? Never been one to panic with hypos.
As @Pipp can testify. ;)
Oh yes, @Pipp can vouch for this. Never turns a drama into a crisis. Hope you are soon on an even keel, @Jaylee .
This morning mine was 6.1. So no drama here, though I have broken a run of 5s. C’est la vie.:)
 
Hello mates,
At a couple of the other forums I've frequented there was a thread like this one where we all sorta checked in each day, with our first cup of coffee or tea, and reported our fasting or waking blood glucose level and some short comment about whether we're ok with it or if not - why not?...

It worked well as a sort of 'first thread to check' each morning and post to.

I'll start.

This morning was a 5.6mmol for me. That's about normal for me

What about you?
7.1 -getting better w/out divalproex
 
Morning All (just). 6.7 at 0745 could have been worse, could have been better. Was brought in for a huge blood draw on Friday inc A1c. Seems 180 is a good no in Darts but not so good in BP. Yet more meds on the way or as my dentist comforted me with last week (while he took an arm and a leg) “most people your age are on BP meds”. What a joker! @ianpspurs agree that tea is the way forward, hope it all works out.
Happy Sunday everyone.
 
Good Morning..... though maybe not for me 8.2 still just within 2mmol of bedtime BGL but annoying. Sorts itself out with breakfast bolus without correction bringing back to 5-6. Still super frustrating.
