I haven't changed anything at all but my diabetes is now something completely different. Possibly changed to another type? I am awaiting a scan. Don't tell anyone but I think the Moderna booster has done me in (I'm not an anti-vaxer)

5.5. Too high for some of you, but a welcome lowering as I was in the Sticky Sixes for most of last week. I had three separate seriously bad things happen, which just shows how emotion/stress can affect BG. Well, it would, wouldn't it? It's mainly about stress and survival, and I'm a natural stresshead anyway. Things move on: I had some very welcome good news today, and two of the bad things are on their way to being past tense.

FBG 4.4 (Ketones 1.9)

@Outlier I struggled to decide whether I should give you a rainbow the bear (hug) or an award!
Hope your week stays on this positive path...

6.7 - Yay for meeee… Well, after a stubborn “herd” of 8s, trampling over my numbers, yesterday a couple of 6s appeared over the horizon galloping towards me with Bugles blaring! And now, this “Morning‘s Temptress“ of a 6.7 - you minx you - has tried to turn my head. Yeah, right. But anyway, Yay For Me!
