For me Christmas isn’t just about presents it’s about Jesus and spending time with my family this Christmas I am hoping to get some nice bits and bobs to furnish my bedroom and I’m hoping my nanny will come to our house to have her Christmas dinner as she doesn’t get out much due to her dementia

Good morning everyone I had a nice lie in today my blood is 5.1 I called the diabetic nurse yesterday but they don’t want to bring my insulin down even though I’m going low a lot. I’m wondering if I might have reactive hypoglycaemia as my glucose drops after I eat for example I had my dinner...

Off to bed to hopefully get some sleep last night was a nightmare. Sleep well everyone

I don’t have insulin with my meals I have a set dose of 4 units to do me the whole day thanks for the advice calling diabetes nurse tomorrow

Yes I go low without novorapid. No I have not changed my diet it’s been the same as it always has. Numbers vary overnight probably something around 9.0 to 3.5. And no I don’t know if my body is producing it’s own insulin

I would usually give novorapid if I’m about 11.0 or 12.0 but I haven’t used it for at least a week
