Don't you just love this weather - it hasn't stopped raining for 24 hours now.
@Brunneria - I gave up last night and binned the rest of my Lily O'Brian's chocolate discs - life is just too short to eat something that tastes that bad
@Annb - I wonder if your thirst might be a symptom of higher BGs - and I know that fuzzy headedness is a symptom for me when my BGs go above 10 - big hug coming your way, I felt rubbish all the time when I was on insulin
@DJC3 and
@PenguinMum - maybe we should start a mini club for those doing all the right things but not getting the expected results
@DJC3 - Good luck with those tests - mine are due between Christmas and New Year (well, thats when I had last year's) - not the best time to be tested but when we try hard to lower carbs then that HbA1c is what it is
@SlimLizzy - I hope you got some good quality sleep last night - nothing worse than just lying there
@maglil55 - OMG, you've had a terrible time, fingers crossed the streak of bad luck is all over for you. Oh, and happy birthday for yesterday
