26/8 - Morning.

6.0
Hi Liam BG this morning was 5.8
It was 10.5 after our evening meal last night
But only 5.7 before I ate the meal.
Cannot quite work out what's going on but I have been trying different foods so it probably is just that. K

6.7. I had such an awful night that I'm actually happy with this :). Problem 1: Dexcom follow app didn't work Problem 2: This resulted in a horrible hypo in the middle of the night. Woke at 3.2 (I haven't been that low in like a month, very disappointing), had juice, dropped to 2.7, more juice, eventually got better. Problem 3: Blood sugar on its way up, FAST. Went from 4.7 to 9.5 in 15min. Thankfully I levelled off around 11. Problem 4: Dexcom didn't know this, and somehow thought I was 15 or so. Problem 5: Despite turning on a -10% basal to avoid more hypos, I got down to the low 4's and struggled to get back up again. Exhausting! :dead:

It must be frightening to have hypos, but it's nice to see your ok today. Good luck K
