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

LivingLightly · May 17, 2023

Morning everyone

On waking at c. 6.30, I've recorded a FBG from 4.7 to 4.9 mmol/l for the last month or so.
Following a restless night, this morning's FBG was raised slightly at 5.2 mmol/l

Sending well wishes to you all.

What a difference a day makes! - Managed more than my 10,000 steps yesterday, easy!, as I decided to go to Newcastle. I've never been to Newcastle for years even though its only a metro ride away. Its always feels just "too big for me". I spent most of the day wondering about trying to get my bearings as everything has changed so much since I last visited. Still it was a nice? change and my visit certainly helped my glucose levels. FBG 5.2 this morning plus I have now got a concessionary metro travel pass so I can go there any time I want (after 09:30) I just need a bank loan to afford some of the hiked up prices.

Have a good day folks.

Morning all. 5.2 - these things can't be helped. @PenguinMum Stirup Thursday in May, should be well aged - how much brandy will that eventually have? I'm off to a cricket bat factory to choose one for my middle son.

Morning all. Haven't posted for a couple of days but can remember 6.8 yesterday morning, 6.2 last night and 6.9 this morning. Nice to be back in the sticky sixes. And before lunch yesterday it was 5.3 !!!! Hope it's not a fleeting visit. That Christmas cake will be mouthwatering @PenguinMum!!! Wish me luck, got my A1c blood test today. Have a good day everyone

You are not alone, I baked a "Bero" fruit cake the week before the coronation but decided it was too "young" to divvy out at party time. Its now happily maturing for a future occasion. I do have a big birthday coming up soon but I wouldn't eat it, my OH is trying to diet and my "local" son and family don't like fruit cake! I think it may be looking for a new home.soon. Perhaps I can donate it to my lovely lunch club family.

Bloods this morning were 6.0.

Does that mean your CABG op has finally been scheduled?
