Don't understand what's happening with your BG into being type1 but in my little understanding of the libra I thought it's purpose was to keep you on track, or is this another type of meter. Sorry you seem to be just has many ups and downs has myself at moment. But I wish you well and hope you can get it under control soon. K

BG of 8.2 at 6.25am - not good at all but could be a lot worse I suppose. So this is what it feels like when going downhill on a rollercoaster.? ☹️☹️☹️
Hi@Ymdawd how's things, your having a roller coaster ride has well that's you me and Karen there will probably be more joining us before this months out. I have said I would not post my BG Has they are also up and down in 9s again after evening Meal but before bed around 10 pm they dropped to 6.1 tested when I got up around 3pm and they where still 6.1 I don't understand it all just putting it down to illness. Wishing you a good day and if your out and about on the roads take care? K

Not ideal numbers Ymdawd...but...you seem to have been pushing your self hard lately...driving up north...Scotland..very early starts...the weather...possibly stress induced...not enough rest...not feeling100%...no doubt as you know it all takes its toll...hope very much you have a break soon...those numbers will settle.

Oh no, sounds like a bad day. I know the feeling, a lot of positives with rural living but can be tricky when things go wrong. We had an oil delivery yesterday, only to be told our oil tank was split and they couldn’t deliver!! We’re nearly on empty too!

Morning all. A very cold one this morning. -7 overnight and very icy here. Another roller coaster. 7 at bedtime and 8.2 this morning! To be fair I did have a small cheesecake last night...I know I shouldn’t, but it was delicious . Stay warm and safe if you’re going out.
