    Blood pressure won't come down.

    That's a pretty good suggestion, it would check for anything else out of the ordinary too perhaps.

    Blood pressure won't come down.

    Unfortunately this is 100% what I'm doing. I do two just to make sure the reading is accurate and only after I've been sitting in bed for 10 mins morning and evening. During the day the readings are higher still

    Blood pressure won't come down.

    I have been yes. I'm keeping a 2 week log of my morning and evening levels at home ahead of another appointment and this is where I've noticed that my blood pressure hasn't dropped even though I'm on a second medicine. I guess I'm just disappointment and a tiny bit worried that there is some...

    Blood pressure won't come down.

    I run. 3 times a week. 3.5 mile at a fast pace, then hill training and a slower longer run somewhere around 6 miles.

    Blood pressure won't come down.

    For a number of years my blood pressure has been consistently around 145 / 85. I've been taking Ramipril 10mg for around 2 years which I take in the evening recently I've added a secondary tablet for the morning. Lercanidipine. Problem being neither of these have made any difference. I'm...

    Blood sugar dropping rapidly while running. Carbs not being absorbed.

    To be honest I usually have dinner an hour before. I usually have 40g or so of rice, pasta, potato. No bolus. It's very odd. Id really expect fast acting glucose to do something within 15mins. Exercising or not.

    Blood sugar dropping rapidly while running. Carbs not being absorbed.

    I use a 50/50 mix of Novorapid and Fiasp. I suspend at least 3h before I exercise so I have little to no insulin onboard before I start.

    Miaomiao 3 flashing red light

    I never did manage to remedy this. I was very disappointing. I got hold of MiaoMiao via MiaoMiao.cool and they asked me (eventually) to return it for a replacement. They gave me the address and I sent them proof of postage and a tracking number, but the address wasn't found and it's stuck in...

    Running and Type 1 diabetes

    I appreciate this is a very late reply to an old thread, but did you resolve this? I'm having the same issue and I'm finding that any carbs I take on - eaten or drunk, aren't absorbed. then when I've finished my exercise - perhaps up to an hour after I took the carbs they all absorb and my blood...

    Blood sugar dropping rapidly while running. Carbs not being absorbed.

    I'm struggling with scaling my running up to 10km I'm finding that my blood sugars are dropping rapidly which means that by around the 7km mark I'm unable to continue safely. My routine is; - Eat a moderate carb lunch at 12pm (20-30g carb) bolus normally. - Turn my pump off completely at midday...

    Miaomiao 3 flashing red light

    I've put in a refund request through PayPal. The support channels were quite active for a while but died off when I passed them my order number to them (they did ask, and said I was entitled to return my MiaoMiao 3 at any time for up to a year) so I'd recommend going that route perhaps...

    Miaomiao 3 flashing red light

    Yes, so I'm sure I'm right that to reset a MM3 you use the charging cable. I've put it on charge for a while, or briefly to check if there's a correct way to do this. Each time it reverts to flashing red straight afterwards.

    Miaomiao 3 flashing red light

    Thanks Eliz, sadly no luck. No idea why my MiaoMiao 3 is acting so differently to everyone else's with regards to the firmware update. It's annoying.

    Miaomiao 3 flashing red light

    Sadly that didn't work. I'm not sure if the firmware file you link to on your YouTube description is any different to that shared by MiaoMiao but I've requested access to try it.

    There was indeed an update for nRF Connect on the play store. I'll try again tonight.

    Miaomiao 3 flashing red light

    You mean the .zip file that contains the update?. I've recorded what I do. You'll see the misidentification in nRF Connect. It looks like it's successful but the MiaoMiao 3 flips from no lights while sending the application while in bootloader mode to flashing red after the file is sent. This...

    Miaomiao 3 flashing red light

    Unfortunately that didn't work either. I am using the app (renamed to base.apk) to connect to the miaomaio 3, then send the update zip file to it. I have noticed that after connecting to my MiaoMiao labelled as miaomiao3_ae5e and putting it into bootloader. It's then not viewable as...

    I have the same issue, but using the latest Tomato app to update the firmware fails with an "Update failed" message. I've tried a few times but it fails every time.

    Lyumjev prescription

    Hi all, sorry for the radio silence. To answer a few questions, @MarkMunday I already low carb around <50g a day is my norm. I also exercise 2,3 times a week to help with insulin resistance. I would say that my only option at this point has been to shift to intermuscular doses with a pen using...

    Lyumjev prescription

    Hi, I've recently tried to switch my rapid insulin from Fiasp, which now has lost it's fast onset to the new Ultra rapid Lyumjev by EC Lilly. I've managed to dig out the prescription PIP codes but for some reason both my GP and my diabetes team are being really odd about making a switch...
