    Are you usually this low in the morning? That's pretty low isn't it?
    I noticed on the other thread that you're on an insulin pump. Silly question, does that continuously pump insulin to you, even when you're sleeping?
    Does that account for the low fasting?

    I just got the pump a week ago so they are still getting my basal and bolus numbers adjusted. I don't have a CGM since I didn't qualify for it with my insurance. It does pump insulin in my body continuously even when sleeping yes.
    I was 123 this morning

    9.2 (165.6) Holy Moses! It's probably because I didn't have supper nor an evening snack and my liver just went into overdrive pumping out whatever it is it pumps out. I'll test again in two hours.

    Good Judy!!! Hope you are feeling much stronger and better now!!
    The more regularly you can eat about the same carbs per meal and have snacks and do whatever exercise/walking and things the more stable your blood sugar will be. I know you are just getting back into eating regular meals!

    Yeah, getting better every day. I haven't really exercised much unless you count walking in the malls with armfuls of gifts. I'm hurting on the side today, having over extended myself again. Food wise, everything is coming together nicely.
