    Developing reactive hypoglycemia from being sick?

    It's good to get some answers, but something else in the blood work is a concern. I think that lowering carbs even more because of the gluten and celiac to reduce your wheat intake as much as possible, cos that is what I had to do. With my RH and already from young my lactose intolerance, and...

    Never mind the cats breakfast, sounds like it was a bit of a dog's breakfast!!!!! Like the artwork tho. Hope you don't get a chill with sitting out in the garden. At 8am, I had four layers on going for a walk for five minutes.

    6.5 today. Lawn cut and trimmed, filled in a few spaces in my latest gardening effort in the back. Sun is shining bright but the coolness in the air is still preventing warmth, though I have time in the garden today (at long last) and I nearly perspired from the few minutes the wind dropped...

    I totally agree. It's the same argument about religious persecution in the case of Guy Fawkes and the other Catholics. We should have a holiday for defeating a political system. As in the victory of WWII. Though I doubt the current lot would agree with condemning right wing policies.

    Does anyone celebrate St. George's day? I am English, though not proud of how my country is run? It is not something that has ever been in my experience that has a lot to do with my life. And why do we celebrate those that tried to blow up parliament? There must something more more worthwhile to...

    6.4. More phoning and appointments made. #8 and myself another hour on the footie pitches. Lovely sunshine but still a cool wind. Still no rain and I'm determined to cut my grass again later. Don't cut grass in bright sunshine! Or heat! Wait for evening or in shade. What is wrong with a low...

    Don't laugh (or do), why am I going low every time I share a bed with my friend?

    Further to my ramblings earlier in the thread. ....... I have remembered some certain rules for professional footballers. Go to sleep early, no alcohol, no junk food, no meds unless it's a mild painkillers for a knock. no sharing of your bed and definitely no sex! Not even you know..!!!!!! The...

    Nice drawing @gennepher, the sort of bench to watch the world go by, stargazing or people watching. It's unusual to not get some satisfaction from an appointment. But I have had my share of doctors, who don't know what is happening to me. How can a T2 (hba1c normal) have hypos and not on meds...

    Home blood prick tests - a waste of time?

    First of all, 42 is on the brink of prediabetes. An hba1c test is for you BG levels for the previous couple of months. It is a different test than finger prictest. It is not a waste of time! Doing random tests, is just that random. If you can do a fasting test before breakfast is useful. Give...

    That is just one of my photos I took this morning, from my front garden. I can't get the other couple up, it's this kindle! 5.8 twice. I don't believe it either. I was too high and having a minor panic. Not got a clue why??? It's been cloudy and cool today, the sun has threatened, but not...
