    Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

    Thanks for the backing, sometimes I appreciate it more than others but please never mistake my silence for ignorance it's just sometimes the words don't come, I went and conversed with the receptionist and I/me/we/they are waiting for results from the hospital so err, in the meantime I'll waddle...

    Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

    5.4 this morning and I'm going to visit the gp, or rather the receptionist, and ask about my leg because the pain is beginning to interfere with my waddling and my personal mission of spreading a smile and in my wee book of life this just won't do. Increase the peace my lovelies.

    Yeah, I've been to the gp about my leg err, several times and a prescription for anti biotics was the treatment until the last visit where the gp noticed I was diabetic so sent me for an x-ray, still waiting and hurting but, err but nothing if I'm honest, I'm concerned about the future and my...

    Today was started on 5.8, getting concerned about my leg, it's started leaking again and the lump keeps inflating full of err liquid but that won't stop this waddling machine just alters my route to a more flat and even walkway...unfortunately I live on a hill and they do have their downsides...

    5.8 for me, it's a wet one today but that won't stop this waddler, there's puddles to dodge and grumpy people to amuse, hehe, me and my stick, we get around.

    5.6 this morning, another strange day, feeling like my heads under water and my leg seems more painful than usual but then again that's not unusual which is usually the case, or not, but sometimes. My waddle was wet and shoogly but I got to where I was going and then made it back.

    5.4 this morning, strange day yesterday and I forgot to eat, ahem, (the evening waddle was of a circular nature with my internal GPS updating every 3 steps indicating nirvana 7 lefts and 2 rights away) and it would appear it's lowered my prickle number. So many pitfalls with the consumption of...

    6.4 for myself, the sun is shining and the weather is good, there's grass to be cut and waddles to be had so I've put my diabetes in the cupboard and left it there, so today I've decided I may have diabetes just not on me and if you see me alright today I'll do my best to see you fine next Tuesday.

    How Come ...

    Thanks all for the correction it makes more sense but still not happy ignoring spikes, hey ho onward and upward I go with my aching, burning legs and shoulders, as you can tell I'm still new to this but thanks again for the correction.

    How Come ...

    Just curious really but how is it that if I prick over 5 apparently I'm unfit to drive but when talking about spikes and such like with my diabetic nurse pricking in the 18's and 19's is just to be ignored?

    After years of mental torture through trying to think straight I've decided to just go with the flow now and see what life throws at me, taking it on the chin whilst wearing a clown mask reciting the works of Shakespeare in a terrible attempt at a cockney accent. If I couldn't laugh I really...
