    @WuTwo theres one fairly near by, not a big chain establishment but I think they may have some on the 'shelf' I can at least have a look at/try on - if I'm going to have to spend a certain amount of money I need to make sure what I'm getting!

    And that was with the 'amusement' discount applied as well? I'm on the hunt for some Wellies, my current pair have decided enough is enough - they were fairly cheap and I've had them for a year- gone the same way and in the same time the previous same make ones did so time for something else, I...

    following on from yesterdays 8.9 after lunch time pizza, I was 8.6 before dinner, dipped to 3.8 2hrs later but was 10.3 before bed - 3 triangles of Toblerone was perhaps a bit too much :angelic: (but it's been sitting in the fridge with my name on it for a while!) so a 2u correction and 6.8 this...

    FYI I had a 'medium' pizza (yeah right life would be boring if pizzas came in standard sizes! And it was from a small non-chain establishment), guessed carbs (probably under estimated a bit), ate the pizza and then injected straight after - could probably have done with injecting half to 2/3rds...

    Had pizza for lunch at work today - new regime! Pay day pizza (except pay day was a few days ago, we had to wait for a few team members to come back from training\project work), was 6.8 before. 8.9 now - pretty good going for guessing the carbs and timing of bolus for a lunch time carb feast of...

    I like the caddy Input should have a list of available pumps - https://www.inputdiabetes.org.uk/ - which is being phased out as they have become part of JDRF which has this page: https://jdrf.org.uk/information-support/treatments-technologies/ good luck. Edit to add...

    5.something this morning but i did have to do a correction before going to bed last night, so if I had a libre the graph wouldn't have been that flat! (I under estimated the carbs for dinner) Sue night time hypos are very difficult not over correct - it's like R Whites lemonade and the Honey...

    Fiasp v novorapid

    Helen, just a quick question about your change to fiasp, the rollercoaster affect and then egtting it to work - have you made changes to the way you bolus or tweaked your basal rates to compensate for fiasp? I just thought it might be worth mentioning (for the OP) what you did if anything to...

    Jazz A term used here frequently is 'You mileage may vary' or rather 'your diabetes may vary' (YDMV) so what works for one person may not work for another - Nurse 2 got lucky this time - I'm not knocking either of your nurses, and in fact it's a good thing you're getting 2 different professional...

    Spliting levimer dose - how

    Also do a basal test, as without that you can't really distinguish whether it's your basal or your lunch time bolus ratio that needs tweaking

    wise words! BTW I ordered a load of Lemon and Lime flavoured glucotabs..........bad mistake! They're blinking lovely, too lovely really for a hypo treatment. I've not tried the raspberry ones, well I might have done in the long and distant past and didn't like them, orange are just about...

    I'm now running along the low 4s after changing both cartridges early, can't say I mine were underfloor heat treated or even heat treated by some other means - up or down! and they were both around the 50u mark so I'm not wailing internally at their loss ;). Some of my old teachers were...
