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

A busy start to the week with an early train to catch and time to test, but not to post.
I started my day with a 5.7.
Happy with our Christmas tree that went up yesterday, and with the train track running around it. My inner child and my two real children are very happy.

5.6. I was only diagnosed this past July and I just had my first bout with having elevated levels (6s and 7s - still in range, but elevated for me) for a period of time (a week) for no reason. I'm not sick. No diet changes. Boy, that's discouraging, eh?

Happened to me a couple weeks back - 6 days of constant high 6’s - 8’s when I’m usually never above 6.0. A new batch of strips, tested using both and the old one was indeed reading a lot higher. So it may be something like that - try not to worry

haha...Like it :headphone:.
Alan Hudson used to live in my street..(true story) and us lads had the pleasure of a kickabout against him a few times before he went to chelsea.

Btw, did you miss seeing the weekends scores by chance..,<Cough>.City <Cough>..;)

Yep, diabetes may play a mean game, but i think it's underestimated a good portion of the members on here.
Something i hope to emulate,.

Diabetes, best learn that if thinks it can drag me down without a fight, it's sadly mistaken,
there'll there be much Gnashing of teeth, kicking, scratching, gouging & biting going on..

( But cheers for the boost up, much appreciated. )
