Goodluck with eye appointment robs hope you get sorted xHi and good afternoon everyone, it's been a busy few days.
Off to my eye appointment when I finish the school run, driver is kindly dropping me off at the hospital.
Whatever the problem is, or not, I hope I can some answers today and any needed treatment.
Hope you are all having a good day ( it would be dark, dismal and wet on election day)
So my local pharmacy stopped accepting and disposing clinical sharp bins and my local council doesn’t collect clinical sharp bins. I’m left with 3 full sharp bins with nowhere to go with them. I’m left with the option of going to Birmingham to dispose them which is ridiculous.
My Dr does not take them either. I have to phone the council who swap my full ones with a new one. Give your GP a call to see what they say
Morning! I just use dextrose tablets - I found with only short acting insulin and no long acting, that I didn’t need the 15g slow carbs we were recommended when on injections.Hi loopercat do i just treat hypos the same as if i were still on injections x
Good: Today is the day our government has decided that from now on the Libre will be funded for all diabetics on insulin who need to test at least 4 times a day. Yes, that includes T2's!
Funny-annoying: I've had various family members and friends bring cheaper sensors from France for me. Which means I have enough self-funded sensors to last me until the and of june or so Still, not complaining at all!
Very, very hard: I've called the vet. He''ll come over next thursday the 19th to help Old Dog Hidde with dying. It's about time for him. I'm really not sure how to do it all without my closest friend in a week, it already hurts an awful lot.

It was! A bit of an expensive treasure hunt in hindsight, but great fun nevertheless and I won't forget the smugness I felt with outsmarting the system and saving hundreds of euro's So that part is not lost at all!The purchased sourced Libres must have been a fun challenge like a "treasure hunt?"
Thank you. I'll take your wishes for me as they are and I think I'll translate the wishes for Hidde to liverwurst, he still understands that language very wellHidde? There are tough decisions sometimes where compassion is concerned.
Sending you & the hound best wishes.

We will! But I'll add liverwurst too to make sure, as that's definitely his 'thing' and there's no need for him to keep a sensible diet now, except for not getting sick, which I'll prevent by keeping the amount more or less moderateMy wishes are more along the lines of treasuring the good times a thousand fold to you both.
