For weeks I have not been able to get my fasting morning BG right. Sometimes my basal is too high, just right, or not high enough. This weekend woke up at 100, yesterday woke up with CGM beeping at me 65, this morning 160! And that's not as wild as it was two weeks ago when I was sick! I don't know what to do, so I guess I'll just wait for my CGM to yell at me :(
I don't see anything wrong, if you can get up every morning with the same BG number your
a rare case...that's not what most of us PWD's see.
I go through the same thing for a couple of months every year...no clue it just happens
and I correct it and life goes on...;-)
The Bete's is a game of averages and after many years I have learned to stop sweating
the small things like a few unexplained highs or lows...one thing I can count on is it
will change again.
Diabetes will not be part of the legacy I leave behind...And my peers will never judge me by my BG numbers.
I agree that there are definite variations and when I hear a Type 1 say "my bg is always 90-100 when I wake up I figure they have "a different type 1 than I do"! But yes, if you are getting frequent numbers too low or too high you want to see if you can fix it.It would be easier though if it was one or the other! How many different basal rates do you have? Do you get up roughly the same time every day? Do the highs or the lows correlate to where you were at before bed?
If you continue to have lots of highs and lows you might try testing during the night and see where you are going high or low and see if you can't get a handle on it by changing your basal rates or making more "time zones" to account for different needs during the night.
But if you get an occasional 65 or an occasional 160 but usually hover between say 80 and 120? I would say you're pretty typical!
