    iPhone?

    Hi @Coffeemonster , Does she have a smartphone with her? If so, you can locate her by using an app called find my device: https://www.android.com/intl/en_ca/learn-find-my-device/ Or have a google search on Android GPS tracker, those should work with your phone. Much easier and cheaper than...

    "What have you eaten" Parallel Chat

    This picture should have gone with my previous post, and to be honest I thought nothing had posted before closing the laptop on the bridge. It was beautiful, and hopefully it will be again tomorrow morning! I almost missed my swim this morning. Right when I was in my bathing gown next to my...

    Possible T1.5

    With your GP thinking you may have ketosis prone diabetes, or Flatbush, or LADA, a borderline C-peptide test, and multiple bouts of pancreatitis which could be an indication of T3C, I don't understand at all how your GP thinks it's a good idea to have your diabetes managed by their practice...

    Too bad you don't live closer @debs248 , I'd be happy to go swimming together. If you can make it happen with someone at some point, what about not bothering with slowly getting dressed after the swim but wrapping yourself up in a warm blanket in the car, and get dressed at your leisure, at...

    Type 1 BG rises rapidly at 6am most mornings

    This is what I do, I inject before getting out of bed for the rise I know will happen, regardless of breakfast.

    I had a very enjoyable evening wih my date! He had invited me for dinner at a restaurant, and I had razor clams, very hard to find and I love them! They came in a creamy garlic sauce with some bread, nothing else. :) Very interesting conversation too, and after dinner we went to my place and...

    How do they close a lake? Lakes are quite big, can nobody get close to the lake all winter? I bought a tow float when I started regular swims almost two years ago. I haven't used it for about a year now. Still happy I have one for visibility in case I want to swim where ships are, or in case I...

    There are lots of open water swimmers in the UK, and there is sound information to find online on where you can and cannot swim! Have a look here if you're interested: https://www.outdoorswimmingsociety.com/uk-wild-swimming-groups/ I'm sorry you feel that way, and I hope you'll be able to...

    Disposing of Freestyle Libre

    They don't provide every girl above the age of 10 with a sharps box to get rid of their monthly waste. The clue is in the name, it's for things that are sharp.

    Disposing of Freestyle Libre

    A sensor really doesn't belong in a sharps box. It isn't sharp, and it has a battery.

    Hit a real low.

    How did it go? I'm only checking in now, too busy all day and about to log off again. I hope they were very understanding and know their business. However it went, I think it's very, very brave that you actually made the appointment! Enjoy the book club!

    "What have you eaten" Parallel Chat

    Yes, please look into it! It's one of the few treatments without side effects, definitely worth trying. From personal experience I can recommend an almost daily open water swim, I think that's what drove my very long time depression off, but I can understand this is not for everyone... I'm...

    Hit a real low.

    Would having some support here tomorrow morning help you? You've been doing so much better since you've started this thread, I think you'll manage to deal with getting to this appointment all by yourself too. I can't promise to be here before you leave, I'm having a very busy day tomorrow, but...

    Thanks! That's one of the sweetest posts I've received, although I've had many others over the years. :happy: Have you tested afterwards? It may not be as bad as you think, leaving the outer crust and most of the base!

    hypo - keytone (relatively low carb) query

    I don't understand this advice at all. How are you treaing hypos? I'm thinking along the lines of her going very high every time you treat a hypo, in that case they could have a bit of a point. But I'm not sure this is what is going on. If it is, it just tells you she usually needs a less...

    The sensor is not sharp, so this would be a waste.

    Chinese takeaway on the bridge, second day. :hungry: I found two dishes that are pretty low carb and that I like a lot, a small sized portion from both lasts me for two days, perfect for when I'm too busy to prepare proper food. And busy I have been! I had a 7 day stint on the bridge last...

    Have you used one before? If not, they do a free sample, as does Dexcom.
