    I also ended up with a policy with one well known company who added on for everything including when you take driver education courses instead of points. My current insurer again only counts points.

    It can work, I had blood tests this morning, I was viewing my results by 7pm this evening. If you're not getting anywhere with the reception staff I would write to the practice manager who should sort it out.

    NHS Exemption certificate

    It's all prescriptions, yet if he was asthmatic or had some forms of cancer he wouldn't be entitled to any exemption! It is what it is but don't expect too much sense from it. :)

    Pain and blood sugar levels

    For breakfast have a look at oopsie bread though it uses cream cheese and 2 item banana and egg pancakes. I tend to make with half a banana and 1 egg and it works out fine.

    Pain and blood sugar levels

    You too. GF becomes easier as you go on. I found initially I also had to cut out dairy as my system was so screwed up by the gluten. Now I am fine with as much dairy as I like. If the stomach doesn't completely clear try going dairy free too for a couple of months. Also beware of GF goodies...

    Pain and blood sugar levels

    I have not been formally diagnosed as coeliac but I am extremely gluten intolerant. Before I gave up gluten I had very painful joints which were inflamed all the time and constant diarrhoea. My basic level of inflammation would have been too high I believe to show much difference in blood...

    Pain and blood sugar levels

    As a type 2 mine has become much clearer since I started on Insulin 4 weeks ago. The libre also makes a huge difference as I can see the difference between 2 weeks ago trend line and the last few days. One looks like a gentle stream meandering through the countryside, the other like a...
