    What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

    12.5 yesterday, 13.6 today. Think I am brewing a chest infection, but thankfully have an appointment tomorrow anyway so will discuss with nurse then. Numbers all over the show and V tired.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

    FBG 11.7 this morning, after a sudden drop from 14.0 which is a bit weird. Apart from the standard things today eg supermarket, I'm having a quiet day.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

    FBG 11.6 this morning. Nutritionist appointment went well I think. I am in a bit of shock. We are going to go down the path of considering an insulin pump. Though the plan will need to be approved by the higher ups. I'm doing all the right things, carb counting correctly etc but there are...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

    11.0 this morning. Difficult day with pain, but have gained a referral for an MRI to figure it out, so that was a shock. I was expecting to have to fight for it, but it was an immediate yes, which was spooky. Nutritionist tomorrow so that might be helpful. Physio too. I have just clicked that...

    If the protein powder works out for you, you could try one of the ones made for 'sporty' people - might be lower carb. Sometimes avaialable from supermarket or pharmacy. Pharmacist may also have ides of alternatives.

    Thankyou Gennepher I'm doing OK, bit am trying to spin a lot of plates to get into a better place, while doing all the normal life things and its exhausting. Physio, exercise, pain, sleep issues, fatigue, special dietary needs and trying to manage blood sugars are a bit of handful at the moment...

    FBG 9.6 this morning. Perhaps I am managing my insulin better. Travel over the next couple of days so we will see if it continues.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

    Yeah it was weird. Numbers have definitely been high today and won't budge. They were higher yesterday too. Wonder if I overdid the insulin and would normally have had a low. Am playing with my ISF and carb ratio at the moment. Maybe I was less stressed than normal!

    My family member who had a cataract done was supplied a sort of 'sticker chart' by the specialist with the schedule and tick boxes on it for the drops. A bit confronting to see all the doses laid out, but very useful. It sounds like you are on to it and organised:)

    Glad it went well for you:) I hope the drops to follow are not too laborious or painful, and that you manage to sleep well with the hard thing and tape stuck to your face. Love the artwork. The oil fin heater is very effective. I will never look at them in quite the same way again!

    FBG 10.0 this morning. Big day. Had a roast lamb out for dinner as had no energy to cook after the big week. Left the potatoes on the plate, but did have chocolate brownie for dessert.
