Morning!
5.9 today. 6 months since being diagnosed at end of Feb. So compared with where I was 6 months ago with fasting high of 14.8 I am feeling that I have come along way. Bloods booked for Monday!

Have a good day.

A winner for owning the result and possible reason. Denial is a famous river running through many a I don't know why post.

Before Bed Fingerprick 8.1 Libre 8.1 with some bolus still on board.

Wake up to Fingerprick 9.3 Libre 8.3 …. My own fault. BG dropped then rises again when body finished processing last nights frivolity.

5.8 - This is good, ‘cos I was expecting a 6 or 7 after consuming slices of MrsE’s cheese flan, and drinking chilled Rosé. Delicious!
