I have no idea how to pronounce paracetamol. Acetaminophen which is the same thing I can pronounce but have trouble spelling; I seem to be able to spell paracetamol but don't know how to pronounce it. Para (as in chute) - SEE-ta-moll? Para-SETT-a-moll? Para-SEAT-a-mole?

Wow, I hope you're OK!

I've been wanting a pizza all week.

Thank you. I was cleaning the ice off my car and didn't realize how slippery the driveway was. Took a step and boom. Landed on my left side. Arm and leg hurt, but I'll heal. :)

And I didn't fall, I was "demonstrating gravity." :hilarious:

What do you do when you're craving pizza? Order one or make a keto one?

I'm watching this tonight. Just a few minutes ago I went out into the hallway on my floor to dump the garbage down the chute. As usual, the hallway was deserted; this time it really creeped me out! :D

Today I walked to the grocery store and bought a frozen Freschetta one with Canadian bacon and pineapple. And self-rising crust. :(

But oh, it is so yummy.

I was leading Prince out of the barn one day. One minute we were walking out, the next thing I knew I was lying on my side halfway under him (still holding onto the lead rope). I got up and walked away from it but I was really sore for awhile afterwards. I didn't slip; he spooked and pulled me off my feet.

I hope you won't be sore long.

4.7mmol/L for me this morning. Pretty standard these days but you godda keep an eye on the ball or risk dropping it. Complacency is not an option :cool:

Min/max range on the few occasions I have tested this week has been 4.4-5.1. Feeling confident about my fasting insulin test on Monday :nurse:

This is how I think of them -- NSAIDS reduce inflammation that causes pain; paracetamol block/buffers pain signals from getting to the brain. That's probably wildly inaccurate but it works for me. :)

Thanks. I absolutely know what NSAIDs do - use way more than my fair share of Naproxen from time to time
