Today, Monday 22 April - bed 7.8 FBG 7.4. It was a much better night. Not many "coughing" awakenings! I finally awoke at 7.10am, thinking it was Sunday [emoji848] Usual school run, eldest to mine as Mondays are pretty quiet for him at school. B. TAG and 2 slices of SRSLY toast with egg mayo...

There's a few of us here been floored for weeks with a viral infection. We're just left with an annoying cough now (as you'll see from other posts).

There's quite a few of us I know about now who have had the same viral infection and are left with this annoying cough. It's not all day. You are fine for a while, and it just comes on out of the blue (usually at bedtime).

There are options. This is one grandson came up with in the days of lockdown.

I agree. I had a lot of catching up to do, so I posted quite a few on the other thread. I've posted my BGs alongside my food for years as it helps me to keep them together. However, I found myself wondering, "Is this OK?" Or if I'd been fiddling about with a dish to make it low carb, is it OK to...

Saturday 20 April - bed 8 FBG 6.9. It was another poor night with this cough. I hadn't managed to do an online order, so I had to go shopping. B. TAG and 2 slices of SRSLY toast with pate. Benecol dairy free. L. On return from shopping. 2 chicken drumsticks with a mug of Marigold vegetable...

Thursday 18 April bed 7.9 FBG 6.5. School is going fine, but I just can't shake this annoying cough. Hubby read out an article about a 100-day cough that is sweeping the UK. I dearly hope it doesn't last that long! B. TAG and 2 slices of SRSLY toast with ham and mustard. Benecol dairy free. L...

@Annb - how are your legs? I've been back and forward between the two threads and can't seem to find a progress update (although I'd guess it would have to be here).

@shelley262 - I just read your post on the trials and tribulations of the M6 and Manchester Airport. Glad the made the flight. I used to be able to get into Manchester Airport in a hurry, but last time I was there, it had changed so much, I was glad we'd taken National Express from Chester, then...

I got as far as Monday 15 April on the other thread. The last day of school holidays. BGs had been all over the place. We'd both been ill the entire school holidays thanks to the virus both grandson had kindly shared. We're still not 100% and are left with a cough that pops up out of nowhere...

Wow, things have changed in Italy since we were last there. We used to visit a lot as my sister was married to an Italian. We've not been since she passed away 5 years ago. Where does time go?

I'm with you @shelley262. In my case, I have both grandson's daily, and I've been coping with edging the eldest back into school again following his anxiety attack a few weeks back. Add to that, as you already know, I'm teaching him 8 different subjects, so time is at a premium. Since I'm on...

Monday 8 April - bed 7.9 FBG 7.3. Meeting a friend who is over from Australia for lunch today. I'm still coughing with this bug, but I was going no matter what. B. Just TAG L. Tapas - which was wonderful. Goats cheese - it did have chilli marmalade on it, but not a lot. Chicken done in stock &...
