7.6 Still waiting in hospital for CABG surgery slot. As all these precious slots are becoming rarer, I feel like I’m an aeroplane circling over Heathrow. And seriously, I’m scared.

 

[Stu1969uk]

6.5 this morning.

Day 7 of morning fasting testing and my lowest score yet. I know there will be days when I wake up to an 8.8 or 9.3... so I'll take today as a little teeny tiny win

Morning all. Bedtime 6.9. This morning 7.6. Not happy about it, thought I'd done better. Today's another day tho.

Aw RJ, thank you. Last night I got the same from a girlfriend from 50 years ago.

7.5 this morning it is what it is. Off for a workout - reluctantly but I will feel differently after

 

[ianpspurs]

Hope they find a slot for you @Estragon. My fbg? Not the 2.9 or other gibberish Swipey has thrown at me (almost 8 years in, 3 yrs with Libre on Thurs, and never a hypo) - just shown 3.6. No 3 day fasted post HITT (long story) just black tea so methinks Abbott need that one back. Have a great day, time to get the bunting up and make a quiche UK - asparagus and salmon obs (keto pastry, natch) . Broad beans are far too blazing saddles and taste nasty, imho, (ymmv Your Maj)

 

[PenguinMum]

Morning All 7.7 so think this is going to take some time! @Estragon so hope you get a slot soon and we are with you every step of the way. Hopefully you will soon be in Recovery and can hear the virtual cheering and feel the gentle hugs.

6 last night

My fasting blood sugar was 8.9 this morning. I have T2 and am not on any medication for this. ! was told not to test my blood but do take a reading before breakfast and before bedtime nevertheless.
My reading before breakfast vary between 7 and 8. Before bedtime it varies between 10 and 14 according to what I have eaten and how late I have had my evening meal. I am not on a special low carb diet. Are these readings too high?
