[QUOTE="Lorra1ne, post: 2319011, member: 167124" It seems a bit of a lottery as to who can get one, obviously not enough vaccine to go round. Hope you get yours soon.

Thanks @bulkbiker I'll ask if I can have it, lol;)

@miahara - Good to know it's working well in some areas, the next date available to me is on 3rd Nov, will get there early whatever the weather and hope for success. In the meantime with all the social distancing and mask wearing I should be pretty safe.. I hope!

[QUOTE="lovinglife Hope you get yours soon. I have heard that in previous years there was only 65% take up on the vaccination and many doses had to be destroyed - this year demand has exceeded supply.

Alas, all local pharmacies have stopped vaccinations due to shortage in supply. Supplies are trickling in sporadically in the surgery - it's a case of keep trying. Goodness knows how the very elderly are coping with queueing outside in the wind and rain - they are still giving vaccinations for...

Is anyone else struggling to get a flu jab? I have been invited as usual, but can't make an appointment as the surgery is only using a drop in facility using outside tents. Turned up early for a jab, but was told they do not have any vaccine - will try again in Nov but not holding my breath.

I was prescribed dermatonics once heel balm by my diabetic nurse - works a treat.

Lost a stone in weight unexpectedly, and noticed my eyesight became very blurry whilst playing badminton. Had terrible cravings for sugary drinks that I had never had before. Blood test of 33.3 and hba1c 12.3 in old money.

Fibogel is a gentle way of getting fibre into your diet - orange flavour the best in my opinion. The NHS does advise to change to a low fibre diet during a flare up of diverticulitis - might be worth having a look at their info:https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/diverticular-disease-and-diverticulitis/

Breakfast: greek yoghurt and berries with milled flaxseed Lunch: Cheese with apple and crackerbread Dinner: Italian chicken casserole with cabbage and brocolli

Hi and welcome - you have come to a good place to learn about your diabetes and what you can do to improve your blood sugar readings. It comes as a bit of a shock at first, but the important thing to realise is there is a lot to learn and Rome wasn't built in a day. Diet and exercise are the...

Hi - I am making a concerted effort at low carbing so for breakfast - the usual greek yoghurt with a few berries. Lunch was 2 eggs scrambled. Dinner was the keto Chicken Caesar salad followed by a piece of keto lemon cheesecake.

Well I seem to be following in the footsteps of my father, being diagnosed T2 in my fifties. Like him I have never been obese and have always been outdoorsy and active. I have never known anyone with as much stamina as my Dad - yet we both got T2 and I feel sure there is a hereditary...

I have never felt shame in my diagnosis - if people want to finger point and make judgements that is up to them. I see it as something that can happen to anyone and be the result of many causes. The main thing is that my body for whatever reason can't process carbs and thankfully that is...
