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

20.1 I feel dreadful. Was at 7.2 at 2100 hours. Shot up to 13.2 by midnight so had a few units to sort that. Isn’t helping I’m now being made into a case conference and still waiting after over two months to switch insulin by my diabetes nurse just to change from novorapid to actrapid, both gp and dsn have been totally unsupported of my low carb journey and I’m thriving on it. I’m so stressed by the way I’ve been treated night times just go bonkers..
 
Beautiful pictures as usual pavlosn
 
Good morning all. Blood sugars were 4.9 today.

@Key_master_, I am so sorry that you are feeling so dreadful and unsupported by your health team. Hope things will improve really soon for you.
It’s really getting me down @ziggy_w my father has only just passed away at 60, his main cause of death caused by diabetes, I’ve been nailing mine with low carb since end of June. August I needed the regular like dr b as protein is causing issues and I’m now stacking chasing it, if too much rapid is used at the off when I eat I go really low as protein hasn’t come in to play yet. I’ve explained this to both my dsn and gp, then I’m chasing the protein later and stacking..
 

There does seem to be something systemically wrong with our "doctoring system" sorry that you are at the sharp end of it.
 
Sorry your feeling so dreadful hope you get sorted soon an start to feel better sending big hugs
