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

[PenguinMum]

Morning All. 9.0 on meter but I was in and out of bathroom so many times in night so knew it would go arwy. My day not getting any better with Eye injection later but really I am grateful to get them. Some great improvements reported so well done those people. @Diawara gout is truly miserable and after so many bad experiences I went on medication daily and never looked back. At least that worked for me!

7.2 this morning now that I am back on the wagon. Better than most of my previous week readings and back to portion sizing and choosing my own foods. Work to be done I know but just brings it home to me the effect carbs and diet in general has on my blood sugar.
Likely fit a Libre later today, strange that somehow I feel comforted by having it even knowing it is only measuring but not directly controlling blood sugar. Sort of feel a bit lost without it, crazy I know but then that just about sums me up.

each small step forward will get u there in no time

My result at 6.40 a.m was 7.5. My issue is this - It moves to 13.5 by 10a.m at 6.50 i inject 22 units of Levemir insulin . At 8a.m 500 Metformin tablet with breakfast . Eggs or fish plus 1 slice of wholemeal. Occasionally 10g slice of orange (with peel). The orange doesnt seem to make any difference.

5.00 mmol/L at 5AM this morning. Yesterday was an awesome day, today is a little cooler. Lot of you have good numbers with CGM. I am still happy with finger pricking. I fast for 8 hours during the day and 8 hours during the night. My day time FBG is always lower than my night FBG numbers. Have a nice day.
