I usually get up and drink coffee first thing.  I am about an hour from from so I usually eat a bag of pork skins while driving to work.  This keeps me going until about 10 am which is when I eat my first snack of the day.  Should I get me a blood sugar meter?

blood suger meters can be expensive along with the test strips. I would first try to alter my diet in the morning. The coffee will dehydrate you as well as raise your blood pressure and the same with the pork rinds. Do you monitor yor blood pressure and also increase your water in take.

No I don't.  I had my blood pressure taken just last week and it was low, like 110/60.  So I don't worry about that so much.  I may see if I can borrow a meter.

Hi....how are you feeling today?  Have you tried some OJ or something else sweet to drink in the morning to help out with the headaches?

I didnt attribute my morning headaches to low blood sugar - I just figured my cpap was causing the problem....
Thanks for the advice people - I am going to try the small glass of OJ first thing
