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

I’m new. What a great forum. Thank you. Tracking BG only a week. FBG ranging from 5.8-6.1. But day can include banging from low 4s to high 9s. And a 14 once. No idea why. Have fainting and headaches most days. Maybe other issues (autoimmune). Much to learn.
 
Welcome @RobynV. Hug for the fainting and headaches. I'm sure people round here who know these things can offer advice but as always doctors are the first port of call.
 
I like this idea. This morning was 5.2 mmol for me. Looking forward to seeing everyone else's readings over the next few days
 

Last year my nemesis was Mam Tor in Derbyshire. Got half way up and had to sit down and get my breath back, while resting watched much older people powering on up.

Got up and made it to the top. That was the motivation to give up smoking and I did. Now even though I’m a type 1 diabetic can walk a good 12 miles without even getting a sweat on.
