That's great bs without meds. Well Done! :)
Did the gp say why he's stopping the Forxiga?
Morning rose! I did start a new thread about my GPS "confused and unsettled"- I went to ask advice on waking during the night hot and heart racing, and noticing thinning hair- check the threading you get chance rather than me take over this thread!! I think his theory is probably with my hba1c self in October being non-diabetic range......but nurse at the time was happy to leave me on it until next review in april

Well I got sO carried away with my low numbers yesterday I threw caution to the wind. USEFUL to bring me back down to earth with a bang.
I got caught up in a meeting and couldn't get lunch. So when I arrived home at about 3.00 pm. There was nothing quick to eat, I spotted some fat chips my daughter had made, One wouldn't make any difference, now that I was "low numbers Diabetes SUPERMAN" Spring roll looked nice, I'll have that as well, finally, go on then I'll have a toasted cheese sandwich on white bread...bring it on.....numbers after 1 hour 8.2...after 2 hours 9.5. I realise now I am just a normal type 2 diabetic man. Good enough for me...LOL

4.9 for me this morning. Going to be a busy one so am being naughty and having two toast again, well 2 minus the bit that I'd had with the other 2 yesterday. The top "curve" had broken off - wonder if that was the "straw" that broke the camels back" ie the additional spike yesterday.....

I know, could've had just one wth cheese on but can't do that in toaster ;-)

When you know the games up MIke...you know the games up...you have to laugh about it,....its great to be able to share it with all the great people on here...my kids think I'm nuts sometimes....which I choose to be....It was a bit like when I was a kid and I used to think I could get away with stuff and in the end my father would say you are only fooling yourself...of course thats true
