Type 1'stars R Us

[MeiChanski]

Hello friends, your girl is extremely tired and thirsty. My pump decided to kick me out of auto mode at 5am this morning because I’ve exceeded the max basal delivery. I went from a nice 5.5 at bed time to 9.9 by 3am and 14.5 by 5am. Tresiba seemed to have handled a dawn problem that I thought I didn’t have. Lately I’ve been creeping up at 3am. My first review of auto mode is not a positive one.

Suppose I’ll be modded for being constructively humorous.

Apologies if anyone fears Italian sports cars, concrete steps, tacky alloy wheels or black and white photos.

No, it's fine.
I do wish people would leave the subject alone, though, it would improve the atmosphere here. But wishing something and moderating are two different things.

What about the leather seats...?

I don't think there's much wrong with the atmosphere when we can have a laugh and be T1 supportive

Managed to order some sensors from the F&F line! Hopefully I'll be back with some sense thursday......no one say anything!

My usual pharmacy said there was a delay of 2-3 weeks on sensors. I ended up getting my husband to collect 2 from London.

I got a diabetic course being booked March 5th. Took them long enough lol been type 1 since last June. Learnt quite a bit. But what things will they teach at the course? Watch vids?

You are lucky @Delticmatt100 it took me over 35 years to get on a course!!!!!!!

 

[smc4761]

just been to collect my prescription and was advised that the Libre had just arrived an hour earlier, so looks like I have won a watch

On a positive note woke up to a 5.9 this morning and apart from a spike around 2 hours later its been fairly steady all. Now at a lovely 5.2

Call me weird ( I get called worse ) but as much as I love being hooked up to my Dexcom I really enjoy time away from it.
Just spent 7 days “ senseless “. I find it keeps me more in touch with what my body is actually telling me.
Glad I’ve managed to raise a smile.

Hi @Cumberland your life is sounding like mine. Ditto opticians yesterday and ditto no change. Am also attending physio at the moment. Pleased to say the results on my back has been instant. After a week I was pain free for the first time since August. He upped the exercises last week and am now even sliding down the wall doing squats. Hope your initial pain wears off and you start to get results.

Hi there

Good luck with the physio hope it’s a success

Happy afternoon to you all,
BG climbed high during the night and double figures this morning, as I was worried about someone, but afternoon has been much better and number's pretty good.

 

[Cumberland]

Struggled yesterday with double figures each prick

Today has been better
7.2, 7.7, 6.4 and 6.8 thus far

Here is little Wispa having a lie in

Hope this photo is ok I don’t want to offend anyone

I have a pet Tarantula called Tara she’s cute I don’t want to pose her with Wispa because I think Wispa might eat her
