    Numbers or any personal information might be too personal for some people to just simply share. I think It’s against forum rules?

    @Juicyj is this still going on? I’m just asking incase of last minute cancellations.

    Our 1300th post is a sad post :( I too, want to know what is driving this community away from each other. I’ve always felt there was something that was dividing type 1 and type 2.

    I’m sorry to hear, sending you a hug, I’ve read the recent threads on it and it’s not very nice.

    It is fantastic, I did a temp basal before work and another one after I got home. I’ve been in range and I’ve only hypoed once. :) But my carb ratios cannot be changed until next Friday and I know for certain it will shoot my BG up. But their excuse is if you don’t go high, how can we adjust the...

    Could I just say not doing injections is kinda weird. I haven’t quite adjusted to counting carbs precisely, but I’m managing Okay on day 2. I think the diabetes police are coming to get me because “YOU NEED TO COUNT CARBS PRECISELY”. [emoji30][emoji30]

    Hello friends, Takeaway completely messed up my BG yesterday and through the night. Slightly my fault that I couldn’t wait for food but it eventually came down into range. But it was a painful 55 mins :( Sleep wasn’t too much of an issue with a belt and BG sitting at 7.5. Medtronic rep said...

    I don’t have any advice but can I just say your dog is a model with that libre. I love her shirt as well, my heart has gone extra soft [emoji24][emoji24] From the video, it looks like it sticks on to the skin near the libre. I guess more skin tac application.

    Type 1 going on holiday

    Hello, when you arrive at your destination, check the temperature of the fridge you are using so your insulin doesn’t freeze. Your insulin that is in use, should be kept in cooler bags out of the sun. As for the buffet, if you have carbs and cals app on your phone, it might help otherwise you’ll...

    Given ketone testing machine

    I know, orange is quite nasty but I’m letting OP know there’s the bigger pot which is better value. But you’re like me and would rather get two different flavours for £1 :)

    Does anyone know with getting pump profiles/ratios/basal settings right, will it disrupt work in any way? I don’t really want to frustrate my manager any more and I don’t particularly fancy running high for ages. I was told today I’m not allowed to change the settings until next Friday and I’m...

    Boots have on offer at the moment for the lift orange glucose tablets 50 in a pot for £2.80. I save the lift tubes to refill from the pot.

    Ya girl merely panicking, I had a look through my boxes and there’s only 4 reservoirs. I’ve tried ordering from Medtronic today and my hospital hasn’t set up an account for me.

    So I’ve picked up my organ and temp basal is on the lowest setting because I took Tresiba in case I wasn’t ready. It was myself and another person, he is self funding the CGM and auto mode is next week. I managed to get Fiasp without any issues at the hospital. Medtronic rep is also a type 1 and...

    Hello friends, lady at the diabetes centre looked rather confused when I said “I’m here to pick up my organ” [emoji23][emoji23] I might be able to get a Fiasp prescription from the hospital pharmacy. Diabetes sitting at 6.7 atm, not too shabby.

    Your hospital might be able to let you borrow one for a week to identify patterns and trends.
