Nope, Wales

I am scheduled to get a DASH upgrade mid Jan. So it must be available now in the UK.

I believe Spike is currently in a bit of pickle with Apple rules. I haven't checked in a while but it seems like they are finding a work around. You may need to make an account to keep up to date with this matter.

Its not been the easiest, midnight walks to get levels down after a dodgy meal, sitting in a meetings watching the Dexcom rise up and being unable to make a fuss. I don’t think one client or supplier has even noticed, this is what Makes me feel good, its not I’m embarrassed, just makes me feel...

I have just had my results back, and I felt like sharing because its this forum that enlightened me, the weekend after coming home. Its my first HBa1c after my two year diaversary (which I missed/ forgot). Two years ago I felt a little lost, sent home with minimal information and I was a little...

@Tracie1212 I am on Omnipod yes, I have no issues with it. If you do have a week or twos break from Omnipod make sure you are ready to go back to pod if anything goes crazy and speak to your care team as well. Edit: I second porl69 about levels during pump, could you be running a bit high...

Could you try going back to pens to eliminate the pod as a reason..or to confirm it? It could be something else.

Ha I was getting a bit lonely on this thread! Thanks @Celsus Since this thread there is a new app based on ios xdrip called Spike. Visually it is much better but if I am totally honest I have reverted back to the official dexcom app and will only use Xdrip or Spike with an expired...

The libre add on is called Blu-con.

Its become really unreliable recently, worse than it used to be :( @tim2000s. Opening the app makes it work again but yer somethings up.

@Sideburnt I haven't really had an issue recently with this. There has been the odd time I have needed more to bring me down but the other day I read a really interesting article on how the concentrations of insulin vary by the bottle, greatly! I will try and grab the article and paste it in an...

Bread to me is my kryptonite, it seems to be one of the only carbs I crave (naan is all time fave, but never been a success yet), and yet also the only carb I just can't get a handle on. I very rarely have it, and when I do it is often the burgen soya and linseed at a respectable 11g a slice...

I agree with @leking don't fret too much on why, the fact that people who spend every day researching diabetes can't even say for sure is a clue that we will be guessing for the foreseeable future. We all have our suspicions, I believe like @TheBigNewt mine was a pretty horrendous cold in...

Hey Everyone, It's been a while since my last appearance, apologies. I am not too sure what I am aiming about in my post but as there is significantly less information on XDrip and iOS I thought I would update everyone how it is going. So I read about XDrip on iOS (not XDrip+ sadly) and...

So update as I am about to change my pod, this pod has been in since the last change stated above. It seems to have returned to normal, I lo-zero carbed for the next few meals and tempted myself with a 40g+ meal today, not an issue (*bearing in mind two meals at 30g/40g were the previous...

So news, sorry its late (I can be nocturnal) lunch was a disaster today - 11.9mmol max today with 46g carbs (even lowered my i:c ratio!) then had a very low carb tea with no extra insulin and it was flat (6.2 max!) So ruled out basal, the meals differed one bread, one potatoes but similar...

Thanks for the tips :) my eve basal is due a test, my fasting and lunch are tested frequently as some days I skip breakfast and treat it as a fast and sometime have a no- lo carbs lunch or skip/ delay it due to busyness. But tonight my tea was flat, no extra shot for carbs as it was less than...

Ha yes there is, its similar to drinking a non sugar sweetened drink as your body anticipates a sugar rush but to audio and visual cues. Off topic but its the same as chewing gum, makes you feel hungry as your body preps your stomach for food but gets none. But that aside, I don't think its...

Hi @tim2000s 30g carbs in this meal, ones previously were the same or higher, monday had 70g for a meal. I tend to hover around less than 60g for most meals. I have noticed this higher ratio to carbs when I have gone for a meal out. In fact my lunch for the day was the same carbs and that was...

I haven't had any major problems with my treatment really, other than my varying sensitivity levels but tonight I am having a pickle. SO I thought I would come to the place where these things are solved. I am sat at 10.2mmol and have been since 7:30pm, I don't do well when my numbers are past...
