    One for the ladies (sorry guys)

    The temper and lows aren’t nice at all, I’m looking forward to the no more periods definitely, but they are so sporadic it makes me more anxious wondering when or if it is going to show itself. I’m telling myself it’s the hormones and to remember I am sane (I think) there will be good and bad...

    Thanks guys, I really appreciate your kind words. I’m over the worst of smoking and I can see the benefit, I can actually smell my washing powder instead of stale smoke, and my bank balance definitely looks even better [emoji4]

    Covid vaccine

    So sorry to hear about the problems you have had. I guess only you can make that decision and do what you think is best. Speak to your gp or doctor you are under at hospital, although I imagine you will likely get the same kind of answer. It’s your decision. Hope everything goes well and you get...

    Panic is setting in

    I had the vaccine about 2 weeks ago today. I think it’s been an accumulation of things. Especially when I see the high numbers I’m used too, I just go into panic mode. Not helping myself at all. Hba1c results are still at normal levels so I just need to stay calm Thanks for the reply x

    Hi guys, as you all know I’ve quit smoking and yayyy or so I thought! now I can’t control my blood sugars, they are erratic and I’m getting frustrated and if I’m honest, extremely upset.

    Thanks for the response guys, I’m going to quit the pen and stick with the sugar free lozenges for a while and hopefully they will start to come down.maybe I’ve been taking too much nicotine,with the lozenges and the vape.

    Vape pens

    I just can’t fathem why it’s going so high, I’m always in the 5’s :( it’s set backs like this that send me crazy. Thought it was supposed to be better stopping smoking, it’s making my sugars worse than when I did smoke. I’m sure my lungs feel better though

    Vape pens

    Amazing stuff 11years [emoji4] I used the lozenges before when I tried to stop and my bloods were fine, didn’t raise them. I don’t usually check my sugars but felt a bit off and expected more energy since stopping and it’s not been there. I think, or should I say, I hope it’s down to the vape...
