109 this morning.

My FBGs seem to be getting lower more consistently. Perhaps I'll soon be joining you all getting under 100!

94 (5.21) this morning.  We are on a warming trend but only a couple of degrees a day and will probably stay in the low 80's for a while.  That is good for me, winter will be here soon enough.
@Tamagno, good news for sure.

76 (4.21) this blue sky morning, 87 (4.82) at bedtime last night.

Hang in there Rocky, you'll get it back down again.

Yay Tamagno, that is really good news!

129 this morning - still better than usual!

IVIG starts this morning. Two days in a row, six hours each. At least I can spend the time practicing.

By the way, for any of you interested, I've installed iOS 10 on my iPad Air 2. So far, it's all good (even Dexcom "Follow" is running fine). It's a major iOS update though and I've not yet explored its many features.

Note that those previous generation iPad 2s are no longer supported. Wait for buying a new iPad, however, as Apple rumors are circulating that brand new ones are coming shortly.

Got that upgrade too. Just like you, I'll take some time exploring it. In fact, at our place, it's Ami who does all this work, and then she educates me.  ;D

91 (5.04) this morning.
Way to go Rocky !   ~gjb~
I was an Android user for a few years and never did anything "Apple" before but my Omron blood pressure monitor that connects by Bluetooth stopped working on my Android tablet and in frustration I got an Ipad and it worked just fine.  Later I finally turned in my flip phone and broke down and got an IPhone.  I don't see any major differences between IOS and Android and going from one to the other involves only minor adjustments.  I do like the Ipad and I love the IPhone so I guess I am officially an Iperson.  Both updated to IOS 10 without any problem and it will probably take some exploring to find out all the changes but all is working well.

80 (4.43) this breezy dark morning, 83 (4.6) at bedtime last night.

Both my iPad mini 2 and iPhone se appear to be ver 9.3.5. I got them in June. I am so not technical at all, I am kind of afraid to update... sigh.

Settings / General / Software Update will get you there, or in a day or two the phone will prompt you on its own. Some of the Apps get updated specific to operating system, so upgrades become essential. But I think the 10.0 has some bugs that need fixing. I'm sure 10.0.1 is around the corner.

Ah, I forgot, my BG was 113 this morning  ;)

Prob'ly nothing you did, Rocky . . . morning fastings are often the highest of the day, just because our bodies are waking up & our livers think we need help with that, so they drizzle more glucose into our bloodstream. It's that dawn phenomenon thing. Once you're able to get on the eat-to-your-meter routine, you'll be able to see that your numbers drop throughout the day, and the morning fasting is less important.

You're doing well . . . try not to worry. If the soup was carby - meaning did it contain potatoes, noodles, beans or stuff like that - it could have played a part, but I'm guess dawn phenomenon.

59 this morning.

Way too low plus I woke up with a fever over 103.

Still waiting to hear from the on-call neurologist, but meanwhile I won't be doing the the second day of the infusion - risk of aseptic meningitis. Also a possibility I won't be able to take IVIG any more. Just have to wait and see.

Good grief!

96 (.32) this morning.  Still on a warming trend and now they say a chance of thunderstorms Monday night, or Wednesday, or Thursday, just depends on what agency you choose to believe. 
@Tamagno, sorry to hear the news, hope you get a solution soon.
