Oh no,
@ravensmitten, it sounds like you've been in the wars. I hope the exercises help, and that you claim some compo from the car that ran you over!
I have my blood tests, including HbA1c, this week.
Thanks mate. It's a tricky one as it was my elderly father taking off as thought I had cleared the vehicle, total accident, don't know whatever happened to mirror signal manoeuvre though. He felt awful about it and I didn't want to twist the knife. Maybe it's not connected though. Looking back I did have a 4 day headache prior to it emanating from my neck, maybe slept funny as not at home with my own pillow and I also used a massage chair so there's a few vectors there.
I'm hoping its not as bad as last year, I was out of action for 5 months, couldn't even push the hoover around the house for pain and it was a 14 week wait to get physio. I did ask them last time to send me some videos to carry on good form at home, so I've got a pile of rehab exercises to do which I think will help quicker. will just have to see if it improves with time, what else can you do.
I know I shouldn't be putting off my blood tests, but think it will even out the blip a little by kicking the can a little down the road. I do estimate it to be a lot lower than before as my readings got pretty consistent. I just need to realise that eating more carbs for a week or so is no reason to say sod it I've messed it all up now and throw in the towel.
I've beat addictions in the past so know for certain it's not a given I have to go back to the things in question, maybe I just swapped some addictions for others though (food)
good luck with your blood tests though!
Sounds like you're well on your way getting back up on the wagon, no mean feat with the bad luck and a body not playing fair!
Dank je, Yeah, finding it quite hard to concentrate on much at the moment, as its like a constant toothache in my neck/arm, I'm fighting the urge to eat things I know are not going to do me much good in the long run, not winning every time but I'm curtailing it somewhat. I really don't want to get into heavier painkillers though I do have some knocking about. I know what to do food wise so I've just got to get on with it as I'm sure what I've been eating isn't making me feel any better really.
Ah well now is as good time as any to get back on topic...
Tonight, I ate a massive bunch of kebab meat so I'm not hungry at least.
