    Every So Often... Bloods just won't go down.

    @ everyone, sorry if I seem to have ignored, I didn't get any notifications that there had been further posts, and only saw these by chance! Everything's been fine & dandy since the day after, just like every other time - I just get that day or so where for no observable cause it just will not...

    Every So Often... Bloods just won't go down.

    Long time reader, first time poster... please excuse any forum etiquette faux pas I might make. I've been Type 1 for just over 20 years, and generally have pretty good control . Every so often, though, I have a day like today, and I'm getting to my wits' end. The long description: Last night...
