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.

Have a great Sunday

Good morning Pavlos. Thank you for sharing the picture. Brings back happy memories. Enjoy your Sunday.

Good morning all. Back home today. Fasting blood sugars were 5.6.

5.1 this morning. A real surprise considering I have just driven 260 miles

Really disappointing. Not done exercise for some days now

5.0 this morning.

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.

Hi @James1968,

Will keep my fingers crossed that it is not the coffee -- we already have to give up so many foods (and drinks).

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.

6.4 this morning
Have a pleasant sunday

Key_master_ · Sep 17, 2017

Good morning you lovely lot. I hope you all have a nice Sunday planned.

7.7 this morning. Were 6.8 at 3am 4.1 around 2300 before bed so had a sneaky gram of dextros.

Little shot and a sit on my little exercise bike then a nice omelette for breakfast.

Fbg 5.2 with loads of sleep lately. I was hormonal other day, now not. Was lively, then tired, now lively again. Might be thyroid again. Seeing gp on wednesday about neuropathy check. Must remember a blood result print out.

Sorry, @James1968, a slight misunderstanding. It must be my language skills -- I thought black referred to coffee.
