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

[Ryhia]

6.9 this morning. Doesn't bode well as I got a text from surgery yesterday reminding me to fix a date for A1c bloods. I usually get my bloods done end of June beginning of July so wont be phoning anytime soon.

5.7 again an unexpected low. Not sure why as quite carby yesterday as had chicken tenders and mushrooms in breadcrumbs for dinner yesterday. Normally anything in breadcrumbs is "devil" food for me but only got a brief rise in BS and settled back to just around the low sixes in the evening.

7.7 surprisingly! Not sure why as I had a nasty migraine. Still don't feel right.

5.8 today. Back from the island, a long drive but it was spectacular. When the sun shines on the west coast it’s breathtaking. Not so much when it rains.
Getting hot here, heat warning coming into effect. 35 all week…yuk. Thank goodness for air conditioning.

When I went online to book mjne after my text reminder, first appointment was 3 weeks later, next available was 5 weeks!

Libre says 5.4

So confused at the amount of carbs had to eat yesterday sort of regretting decision going for 30 mins swim.

Attached graph for yesterday

Popped into pool 8 point something ate 15g carbs at that reading Libre went to 3.1 finger prick poolside 3.5 loads of carbs for hours after.

Just how supposed to manage exercise? DSN called me later on and been told to try 3 units today. Not really comfortable with that after lots lectures about reducing slowly 1 unit every 3 days.

DSN going to call me Tuesday to see how the weekend went very frustrated can't seem to get to grips with a simple 30min swim nor walk

 

[grantg]

Injected 4 units too nervous trying 3 don't like conflicting advice especially off same DSN currently 5.9 according to libre

 

[DEBBIESCOTT]

Libre 5.1
Off to the gym for a couple of hpurs
Take care everyone

I'm just going to leave it until I start to feel guilty, or I get a reminder. Just got a bit too much of life going on at the moment.

8.8 this morning. In the 7's yesterday. I just can't seem to get on track.

Dont really know what my bloods are - they were 6.0 when I tested first off, then thought I had better double check as I think my glucose monitor might be on the way out it keeps showing a low battery and then gives intermittent low battery error messages. i'd changed the battery but noted the back is slack probably time for a new tester, I've had this one a few years. The second check came back 6.9. Which one is more accurate I wonder. Have a good day all.

 

[ChrisT2]

Starting the weekend with a reasonable 6.5. Have a good one whatever you are up to.

Still grappling with a new sensor five point nine one second , seven point one the next


Gotta love being able to get multiple readings without finger pricking eh ?
