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

Finger prick tests were 5.1 last night and 5.2 this morning, but CGM giving very random values. Is it just me, my last 2 dexcom changes have been really unstable for the first 24hrs, something I’ve never had before. I’m meant to be going on the Omnipod 5 that uses the G6 sensor for automated corrections etc etc. This is freaking me out atm. In about 3 hrs time I’m off to Switzerland with work so debating to change it out .

Changed out the sensor, super stable now. That’s another call to dexcom for a replacement

I definitely give myself a bit of angst though, when I near my yearly A1c check, which is actually on Wednesday. Usually I can guesstimate what my results will be but this year has been a bad year for me as .I have had other things going on which I am pretty sure have negatively impacted things. Anyway too late to worry about that now I will just have to wait and see and hope.

Edited to add: Looks like I have come across a bit negative, I didn't mean for that to happen. I really wanted to say well done for achieving an A1c of 41 you should be really proud of yourself meds or no meds.

I didn’t read it as negative, thank you for such a considered response! And hope your own review goes well on Wednesday
