Cuglia, that was a rather high horsed response. I searched solostar disposal and no search results came back. This forum isn't the easiest when trying to find out information readily hence why I posted. Furthermore I was hoping to get an opinion of someone who uses Solostar pens as they will...

Hi all, I'm not sure how I'm meant to be disposing my solostar pens? Just wondering how people dispose of theirs. I have a yellow box which I put needles in but if I put pens in it it just fills up quite quickly. I'm tempted to put them in the bin as there is little or no medication in them and...

Hiya, I'm in the same boat. I'm 25 also, it's definately frustrating but I know for a fact that it's got to do with bg levels. I feel tired when my sugars aren't steady so when I'm swinging so when my sugars are high and low in the space of a day. Or just high or low. Just reign in the sugars a...

Re: Blood sugars ansd having a row I'm thinking its got to be the row because that's a regular breakfast for me and my rising sugars r normally between 5-7.

I'm just wondering if people have noticed a correlation between having a row or a strong argument with someone and then a rise in blood sugar. I woke up at 7.9 had a bowl of Branflakes with milk took 4 units of my fast acting to cover my brekkie then had an argument and an hour and half later...

Hiya Lfcrab I'm 24 now and was diagnosed when I was 5 so I completely understand your predicament right now. My memory isn't that great to be honest so I'll try and do my best to give you some half way decent advice. :) When I was 12 I was put on basal bolus to basically cope with puberty...
