LOL likewise, but a screen full of purple, green and red numbers doesn't tell the full story. But yes agree with a consultant getting down to the knitty gritty is probably not worth while/good use of time - for a DSN though....... thanks for all your input guys - maybe I'm not going mad...

Typical insulin dependent diabetic scenario you have there - no 2 days are the same! glad your levels have bottomed out so to speak. Has anyone mentioned LADA to you?

"1. People with Type 1 diabetes OR with any form of diabetes on hemodialysis and on insulin treatment who, in either of the above, are clinically indicated as requiring intensive monitoring >8 times daily, as demonstrated on a meter download/review over the past 3 months OR with diabetes...

As of April there is a national criteria for getting the sensors on prescription, BG testing 8 times a day is one of those criteria which you were doing, however there is also a section on self funders which you are now, if your hba1c has improved during your use of it that will help your cause...

Why does a clinic use diasend to monitor patients? The data it presents, in my opinion, is disjointed and uninformative. I use the Libre blood glucose meter (I don't use the sensors) but I log BG (obviously!) carbs & injections (both basal and bolus) - but using diasend it is impossible to see...

Libre denied :arghh: no great surprises there then, but I'm not sure if my 'doc' ever goes home, she called me on sunday afternoon(!), and had previously called me late tuesday evening as well - she certainly puts the long hours in. been a steady weekend. I also echo Knikki's comment above...

@WuTwo when will we find out what we are crossing our fingers (and toes) for?! Hope it all pans out. BG's have been good of late (work on the other hand.....!), 6.6 last night 6.1 this morning. Not heard from the Doc regarding the Libre hopefully next week then. TGIF!

Just be careful going back to levemir in the morning, you'll potentially still have some toujeo sloshing around. Can I ask what the reason was for changing to Toujeo in the first place if you were doing well on Levemir?

Same here, I'm intrigued, and wondering why? Edited: just done a quick google and I assume it's Krishna? and interesting as to why, the allium family belong to the passion and ignorance categories, and therefore increase those 'attributes'.

@Cumberland you have to stop posting doggie porn, to adorable for words!

Oh the ironies in this post :playful: no you can't use a hypo as an excuse for being caught speeding :wacky::hilarious: and then being 'told off' for breaking the law by someone whos avatar is a motor bike rider with the name urbanracer :D:playful::hilarious: I believe the DVLA say if you are...

the obligatory foot shot on the beach from last week, the one I wanted to upload but couldn't.

@helensaramay out the blue the doc phoned me tonight, she knows I don’t meet the criteria but still wants to put me through for further discussion with the team for getting the Libre. Must be my charismatic ways or failing that number of hypos, I get! Team meetings on wednesdays so might hear...

Hi guys, back from holiday with a spring in my step - well I will have when I leave work to go home! Had my clinic appointment late yesterday (late being the operative word :sour:) - came away thinking what was the point? So I had uploaded (before I went on holiday :p) my meter readings to...

I think @DunePlodder may use one. Welcome to the forum Sarah BTW.

He is a big fluffy bear, and a gentle giant.

Sorry haven’t posted for a while, been busy....... .......picture bright sunny and hot costa del sol beach.......(sorry can’t up load picture!) But I have been keeping tabs on you all :woot: (and taken my eye off the t1 ball, sort of, well I am on holiday!)

pizza last night, and forgot my second dose so was high before bed, now correction and basal? since i hadn't had new potatoes for tea/dinner/supper I stuck to my usual ratio and so I was 5.6 this morning. I'd love to write a computer program of all the rules and scenarios I encounter but I think...

@Chook (I'll probably get moderated) but ****** well done! Edited by mod for profanity. You were correct! ;)

think we may have lost @porl69 to the world of google, hope he finds his way back out soon and in one piece!
