Sorry I need to vent a little ...
Well looks like today is going to be one of those days
I had a good weekend, graduated from a course, celebrated and numbers stayed good. Yesterday had a good BG day stayed around 4.8-5.0 (86.4-90), even two hours PP. I pushed the boat a little last night and had some plain cookies, but even 2 and 3 hours later I was still fine (no higher than 6.2 - 111).
The I had a bad night sleep, woke at 3.45am with a pain in my lower back, I have found that if I stay in bed for more that about 5-6 hours I get back pain, tossed and turned trying to get comfortable with very broken sleep, our 6 year old came into us at about 5.30am, (he rarely does this) and wanted to sleep with us so I moved to his bed, still not sleeping.
Finally got about 1 more hour of solid sleep a between 7.50 and 8.50, got up, showered and dressed, tested at 9.20am 7.9 (142) WTF!!, tested again 7.2 (129.6), darn! Had a small breakfast with some carbs, I don't normally have breakfast but if I'm high in the morning a few carbs can help. Just tested now 12.18pm and I'm at 6.8 (122.4), drat I thought I'd be back down below 6.1 (110) at this stage.
I am a little stressed with some work stuff, so I'm guessing this is down to stress, poor sleep and the weekend of celebrations. There are times when I just want a day off from diabetes! But guess that's not going to happen.
Ah well, I'll just have to accept this as one of those days and look forward to tomorrow being a new day.
