7.0 then 1hr later after a cup of brown 10.2 what do I need to do

Hi @James1968,

It might be a liver dump, it might be the caffeine. Hard to tell. If I were you, I would test a couple of days having coffee and a couple of days without to see whether coffee is the culprit.

7.1 at 9:45am.

I think I'm coming down with a cold, my throat feels thick and scratchy, plus I'm having a bout of stress, plus it's almost that time again. Sigh. Been seeing highs over 12 for no apparent reason the past few days. I'm going to try and low carb as much as possible for a few days, or at least combine my carbs with more fibers, fats and proteins, see if that helps some.

Sounds like you have the same trouble as me, my body is very zingy in the morning and upon waking my sugars creep up if I don't get up straight away and have a small shot. Usually find my body not as responsive to insulin in the morning as it's being fought off by the dreaded DP.
