You should see the size of my diabetes spares box ha , enough to see me through a zombie apocalypse I reckon.

I'd keep it as a spare...

Hey, Those levels are all completely normal. To me reading this and your other posts I get a sense that your are experiencing is health anxiety, general anxiety and stress/grief. I've suffered from it in the past and know how debilitating and awful it can be. My advice, for what it's worth...

Gary Schneiders think like a pancreas book is a good start, learnt more from that than the DAFNE course.

You'll be able to keep those beta cells abut longer if you keep taking your insulin. You can gain all the knowledge shared on a dafne in afternoon online. I believe the Bournemouth Hospital pack is even available for download.

Go on veg, meat, fish diet, lean cuts and lots of green veg. Ditch the fruit. Really cut carbs down e.g less than 50g a day. Lower insulin accordingly. Cut calories down down further to 1500 and drink loads of water. I bet after 12 weeks you'd drop a good deal of weight. Walk on an...

Exercise will increase insulin sensitivity quite rapidly. Especially if it is of high intensity. 80U basal is pretty high to be honest. I'm 95kg 6ft 4 and my total daily dose is around 40 units. 20 unit basal the rest bolus. Use glucose tablets to correct lows, quicker and make things...

Just had one, managed to burn it slightly ha. But didn't expect it to taste as good as it does given the high protein content. Really low price for 27g of protein. I suspect this will join my regular bacon and eggs breakkie. Cheers for the heads up guys.

Nope. They had none on display. But had big bags of them in the freezer out back. They arrive part baked. They are then done in batches every morning. 240C for 15 minutes apparently.

Just bought 30 of them, still frozen. Thought I'd stock up on the off chance and was fortunate enough to chat at a helpful member of staff. Not tried one yet though!

Haha no. I'm a child of the 80s. But I'm familiar with the story ha ha.

LOL. Mid sex hypos Hahah.
