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

[Aginoth]

Survived my Pip Assessment yesterday.
Off to the hospital to have the surgical dressing removed on my foot.
Reduced my painkillers too.

4.9@0730

All is good

How much do the dogs cost who recognise low blood sugars? Seriously, I’ve got 2 spaniels who wake me if I’m low. Hugo just woke me up and I’m 3.2 at 4:20

wow

 

[karen8967]

Morning everyone, 3.6 today, bit low after cannula change, will have to lower basal rate, keep safe everyone.

@Granny_grump hugs and glad it's treatable x
@Bubbsie hope your inr is in the right range x

Me - 7.6 this morning but pizza and biscuits did that but I plead mitigating circumstances - I'm 53 and still having 'that time of the month'!

Thanks Tigger...numbers spot on this morning...not back there for another month...as for your 'diversion' no explanation necessary...no judgement here...necessary & as you say very strong mitigating circumstances...plus not bad 7.6 for pizza & shortbread....

 

[Troubled1]

5.3 this morning. Be well @Granny_grump_

 

[HarryBeau]

4.3 for me today after all the highs cant believe im gonna say this but a bit low for me [/QUOTE

You must be relieved Karen...although not ideal...such an improvement...hope the awful head cold has improved...run its course...have a good day.

 

[Cumberland]

B****r Cumberland...hope you're able to turn that around this morning...and your day gets better from here on in

Thank you @Bubbsie I tend to get shaky around the low 4’s so under 4 is a bad place for me

Not particularly knowledgeable on type1 & insulin C...or hypos come to that... consider myself fortunate I've never experienced one...hope you've got it under control now & can finally start your day on a better footing.

I had 3 hypos yesterday and 2 so far today

I’m not feeling good and I’m completely off my food at least today I have not vomited so thankful for that

Lucozade or Glucogel takes me out of hypo

Hypo feeling usually makes me shaky sometimes a bit of panic sets in as it’s a horrible feeling

Thank you @Bubbsie

When we're ill it's like a game of Russian roulette, take care and get well soon.

Morning all, and a 6.4 from me.

That suprised me a little.. Yesterday I had my 1-month diabetes review and was told I was doing well. But also felt a little light headed, probably as I hadn't eaten before running around town. So checked BG when I got back and it was up from the morning's 6.4 to 6.9.. Which made me feel slightly guilty about the celebratory multigrain & rye bread I bought. 200g of that and 2hrs later, read 9.4 So.. oops, and was expecting a higher reading this morning.

I really don't understand my liver..

 

[Lauriem1967]

Good morning everyone, my fasting blood glucose was 5.4, it’s the lowest value since being diagnosed three weeks ago. I’m happy about that!
Thank you LCHF!

Have a great day everyone!

@Granny_grump_ Big hugs,what a roller coaster you're having.

Thanks Glenmac talk about what life throws at you I'm have the lions share at moment but eh! There are so many worse off than myself, I'm still able to do everything I've always done. But I don't cope with it all like I could when I was younger! K
