    Regular moderate exercise log

    I'm back with my PT after a knee operation, my eating is now very healthy and I've not had a reading over 7 for 2 months. It's given me a massive boost and I feel absolutely amazing [emoji12][emoji12]

    2015/16 Football Season

    It's the north east derby this weekend, it's MASSIVE up here, everything just stops for 90 minutes and you can hear the match in every street. As you can tell by my name I'll be cheering on the home side [emoji12][emoji106]

    bull ****

    Hi Sue Thanks for your help. I had around 40% of my pancreas removed but have chronic pancreatitis which is obviously progressing hence the diabetes. It's so confusing. Thanks again, Paul x

    bull ****

    Hi I had pancreatitis back in 2008 with pseudocysts which caused some narcrosis of my pancreas which subsequently had to be removed, then I had a recurrence in 2011 followed by diabetes in 2012. I'm otherwise fit and not overweight so would that make me a type 3c as my diabetes nurse and doctors...

    Has Anyone Had a Good Experience of Metformin?

    Hi I had a bad experience with Metformin, always felt bloated and didn't have any appetite so my doctor put me on the modified release Metformin and I've been fine for two year with them.

    Regular moderate exercise log

    I had pancreatitis and my diabetes will progress was just hoping for a little longer on the tablets. Worried about my motorbike license and insurance etc with diabetes. I can't swim with my knee but I've been doing a little walking (hopping) back to work next week so plenty of exercise there :)
