I make the most of the 5s for fasting readings as its very rare, had a 4.5 fasting reading once which for me is unbelievable

7.4 this morning, on Libre but checked against my monitor and I’m 8.4 so perhaps there’s a bit of a difference between the way it’s measured. Will check this for the rest of the 10 days left on the sensor.

Finger prick readings and sensor readings won't always match @Margaretjamieson and in fact they are very likely to be different. That's because they are measuring different parameters.

Sensor glucose readings come from the interstitial fluid (ISF), a thin layer of fluid that surrounds the cells of the tissues below your skin, not from your blood.

Morning All still stuck in the 7s at 7.5 though yesterday was a difficult day as had lunch with a friend where safe options were thin on the ground. Will just carry on carrying on then. Have a good day everyone.
@DEBBIESCOTT so sorry for the loss of your mum.

Thank you

Morning all! 8.4 - not a good night sleep… my cat returned home yesterday after 7 months away from home and due to working away have not been able to see her - but will do today!

I think I was 7 this morning, still very high for me….this virus and much life stress is taking its toll on me. My food remains ultra low carb.
levels have been high at all times of day so I decided to put on the last Dexcom, which is now giving me silly readings…the warm up is so unreliable! I’ll keep calibrating and hopefully I’ll be able to get some decent readings tomorrow.

Morning all

Friday, 4.9 mmol/l on waking at 6.00 am.

The weekend is almost upon us.
Take care everyone and stay safe.
