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

Morning All 7.4 today so the Plan is going to take longer than desired, sigh!
My cat o’clock these darker mornings is 7.45 and it does make me wonder if I tested earlier would it be better. Soggy moggy day. Take care all

5.2 - Lively Five-Hive here. However, advice is sought.

OK, got my HBA1C for this October, 55.00, meah, up 5 points from June this year. Here's the run from 2 years ago:

20/09/2021 46.00 - Lowest ever!​

14/07/2022 53.00 - Ugh, raised 7 points, not good.​

12/06/2023 50.00 - Down 3 points, better direction. Start of my Cardio Bypass. During this period there was a short Insulin period.​

09/10/2023 55.00 - Up 5 points, but now well into Cardio rehab. With more exercise, my appetite dwindled, and have lost nearly 16 kilos​

​

Mildly depressed and not a little confused. Here's the thing: Medication Metformin plus now, Dapagliflozin (recent Wunderkind of Cardio/Diabetes); watching diet proof of which is my descending and sustained 6 or lower morning fasting; as a result of the QuadBypass a lot more exercise, workouts, and gradient walking. Question: What do I need to do to get back to that 46.00 of 2021?

All donations, of advice, will be gratefully and respectfully received.
