Good morning

I have type 2 diabetes can someone tell me what my readings should be in the morning? My GP said under 11 then another doctor told me about 8. Most days I am under 10 on waking up, I go to bed with readings of 6 and wake to 8-9 why do they raise at night? I use a glucomem metre

Hi. I've been told it should be 5.0 in the morning, about 6.3 in afternoon, about 7.5 in the evening and about 8.5 before bed for a person with Diabetes.
