Im not laughing..... Honest!!! Blogging at drivendiabetic.wordpress.com

I was diagnosed 3 weeks before my first offshore trip unfortunately, so I've not been :( I'm office based until September, although officially I'm medically cleared to go offshore now. I'm an engineer and so haven't required job specific training. I'd advise looking at Amec or Wood Group PSN...

Woohoo that's me! So basically your medical requires you to have 3 months of "good control", as approved by your consultant. That is as far as the hospital goes with regard to controlling your job. As far as offshore restrictions, the OIM and the medic have to agree to have you on the asset...

I LOVE creme eggs but one is sweet enough! Blogging at drivendiabetic.wordpress.com

I wanted to have a run today. But woke to 14.4 so corrected. 3 hours later I'm 17.9 Seems insulin is not my friend today. You'll find me bashing my head again a the wall! Blogging at drivendiabetic.wordpress.com

4901 today. Spent too much time in the champagne bar instead of on my feet! Blogging at drivendiabetic.wordpress.com

HUGE benefit now they're out. I'm never ill now! I had them removed last July. Since I wasn't eating it drinking much my BG was very low most of the time. It was a struggle to being it up at times. I was high (about 14) when I left the hospital but that was it. Body recovered quickly...

Yes. I know a paediatric nurse who just got one and she says it's changed her life. Shift work is so much easier now because when she's on her feet she can tbr the basal to prevent hypos Blogging at drivendiabetic.wordpress.com

2255 but still desk bound for another hour :( I'll gather more after work! Blogging at drivendiabetic.wordpress.com

I'm giving this a go at the moment too. Not going to lie, I've had some pretty bad lows recently which I put down to exercise. I've yet to hypo during, but in the hours after I tend to go low I reduce the bolus for the next meal like you said, I also snack (10g) before I start and often...

I'm on similar meal ratios and 2u levemir once a day. At last hospital check (January) the doctor suggested I was honeymooning at all and that I COULD be just really sensitive. But we're not sure. I've been diagnosed just over a year. There is the cpeptide test have others have mentioned...

Mine is meant to live next to my alarm clock, but sometimes it finds it cosier to just stay on me and come to bed instead! Blogging at drivendiabetic.wordpress.com
