Is there any difference in the body's ability to process (use for energy) stored glucose as opposed to sugar/carbs that are eaten and used immediately? If the system could process "fresh" glucose o.k., but had difficulty processing stored glucose, that would be an easy explanation why my a.m. numbers are high and continue to rise until after I've eaten. For instance, this morning I got up at 7:00; reading at 7:15 was 121. 1 1/2 hrs. later, with no breakfast yet, reading was 136. I then ate breakfast, and reading 2 hours later was 97. Sorry if I'm using improper terms, or am way off-base. Hope this post makes sense.
