    Currently at a conference hence the late on parade. BGs have been fine - cat is still in the vets and now has a feeding tube, hopefully we can pick him up and take him home later and get a training session on how to feed him - he's still not eating on his own though - he has to start eating...

    Morning all, the cat is still in the vets, we did bring him home for a few hours yesterday in the hope that he would be more inclined to eat as he's still not eating, I was expecting him to be fairly quiet and we'd planned for him to just hole up in the spare bedroom but no, as soon as he was...

    Late on parade and work, had to take this morning off last minute, to take one of the cats to the vet, he's pretty sick at the mo but treatable apparently - can't say the same about my credit card though! Funny in that the vet said his (the cats!) BG was slightly raised but at this stage not a...

    Knikki with a chocolate cake cod piece :***::dead: My day was going just fine until I started reading these posts...............! 6.6 last night 6.1 this morning, with no change of basal - ham egg and chips it is then every night!

    2 out of 10 Type 1's Meet Criteria for Flash Glucose Monitors

    What gets me is that each CCG has had a top slice taken from their budget to supply 20% of their T1's with libres yet they are holding back in prescribing it for what ever reason.

    just realised I didn't take my bolus at breakfast, I was going to do it just after I had eaten :eek:. No wonder I was feeling it on the bike to work this morning. I've yet to do a test, but I'm guessing I'm up in the 20's :wideyed: edit: 21.5!

    Morning all - 5.8 last night, 3.8 this morning and I was toying with dropping my basal last night! Did someone mention Gin? :hungry: (For me G+T(slimline) lowers my BG)

    Need advice!!

    Well you're certainly not the atypical T2 put it that way so I'd suggest keep an open mind as to your diabetes type. You may find you suddenly start to feel thirsty and pee a lot, loose weight (with out really trying) because you may just be at the very start of T1, or you could be a very...

    Need advice!!

    With a BMI of 19 I don't think you need to loose weight. What tests did they do to confirm T2?

    Doah - perhaps I should read posts properly - I completely missed the pre-breakfast 7.4 bit of your post! :facepalm: So you only had a rise of 3.5 which isn't too bad really, and murphys law if you had done 7u your own pancreas would have probably kicked in and sent you low, which is what...

    Yo Matt! simple answer is 6u wasn't enough for breakfast, and lunch was spot on! :cool: (but you don't say what you were before breakfast?) Sorry can't remember if you're still on fixed dosages or if you're carb counting and I:C ratio'd up? How many strawberries and slices of toast did you...

    Is an insulin pump just another insulin delivery device?

    ummmm.............Sorry Porl69 but that comment doesn't make sense to me, at least. One of the main 'selling' points of a pump is the flexibility over MDI - apart from being able to just push a button to add a bit more bolus correction when required you have the ability to change the basal rate...

    Gardeners' World is so much bigger and better I agree, and thinking about it you're right I think they do use the location as a tempter put it that way.

    @SueJB see you there tomorrow - You'll be able to recognise me by the dog! (We get quite a few people coming over to say 'Hi' to the dog so you'll have to 'slip' in the code word so I know it's you and you don't embarrass yourself in front of total strangers :joyful: :hilarious:) BGs have been...
