| | | A happy 64 at 6:45. Knew it would rise by the time I bolused for breakfast so I didn't do anything about the slight low. By 7:30 it was 82.

Just curious, but did you calibrate your tester against the lab resuts? Whenever I get a BG draw in the lab, I always test before and after the venus puncture to make sure my tester is accurate. |

| | | 87 this morning ... my morning BGL is usually between 85 - 95 depending on what I had for dinner and how long after dinner I test. Usually it's about 9-hours or so.
If I eat later, especially something with heavy carbs, I can expect a BGL around 100 - 110.

While I sure don't like functioning there - it really feels uncomfortable - I've never felt a lack of control or remotely like passing out. Of course, I haven't really spent much time operating in that range....

| | | 79 @ 4:20 AM, then after an hour walking on the treadmill and 40 push-ups and set-ups with no intake other than water and no meds or insulin it was 89. It goes up 10 - 15 every morning after exercise.

| | | My FBS was 116, which for me is good. I am trying to find a routine for bedtime that will help with this darn dawn phenomonen?? I have usually ran in the 120's 130's.Drinking 1/2 glass of silkened soymilk with 8 carbs and 6 sugars at bedtime is helping bring the morning readings down. I also have been getting up earlier,like 6:30 am,so I can eat earlier and stop this liver from putting out its glycogen. I just want something that helps. |
