How is everyone doing today? I tested at 53 this morning. I was awake at 5:30AM sucking on watermelon glucose tablets. I was sick last night and skipped dinner but still took my full dose of Lantus. Live and learn!
What was your fasting blood sugar this morning? ARCHIVED

Wow hope you felt better soon. My body still feels hypo at 70. I have been reading a lot in all the books that came with my pump. I just finished reading last night about dealing with blood sugars when you are sick and they recommend even drinking some real juice if thats all you can keep down Guess they were right
Careful, gotta take care of yourself!
Cheers

I tested at 54 this morning. Didn't feel hypo today. When I eat dinner early, my AM FBS is usually low.

106 is not a bad number. You are well within the acceptable range set by the ADA. Stress has been known to increase BS. Sometimes this will happen and can't be avoided.106
Been higher in the last few weeks. I had been holding it down, but I think work stress is getting the best of me.
You're like me . . . I know these are good numbers, but I really like mine UNDER 100 . . . and stress IS a big bg buster. Hope your stress level subsides soon.106

I've been using erythritol - it's a little pricey, but I don't use a lot. It is absorbed instead of being metabolized, so is less likely to create "disturbances". I got started on it when I was using Truvia . . . noticed they mix their stevia with erythritol instead of maltodextrin like the splenda people use.
