Uggg….after days of bloating and other fun stuff I came to realize that I do indeed have a flare up of diverticulitis. I’ve only ever had a couple of flares so I forget what it feels like until it’s too late. Luckily I have antibiotics and am only ingesting clear fluids….and I’m HANGRY! I hurt too…..
blood this morning was 6.7….no surprise as my body is ******. Looks like I’m well along in a pregnancy too…how special…

Tuesday
7.3 at 0500 stayed the same or more during the day
I think I had a gout ( i think) flare-up over night very painful this time it's hit both big toes and both knees could hardly walk ..
Would this make bs readings higher?
7.3 today at 0600..

7.9 this morning but not really surprised. Went for a nice 8 mile walk yesterday with just plain water for sustinence and measured immediately when I got back, nearly fell over as reading 10.8 on meter. Was hoping for a decent 6 or so. Never been able to explain why my readings so high after exercise when the recommendation is exercise is good for lowering BG as well as other benefits, sadly not so in my case. I am not giving up the walking because I find it preferable to lying on a sunbed soaking up the rays with a cold beer and a book but I don't expect it to be beneficial for BG any more.

Morning all
4.66 mmol/L at 5 am this morning. Sunny days and little changes in diet works good. Stay active and drink 4 16oz glasses of water. Have a nice day everyone.

Exercise always raises my BG. Some of us are like that. Mine goes down again after about an hour.
