Thank you: I really must take more notice of written instructions!:bookworm::bookworm:

Well... my Silly o'clock (05.30) reading was 7.0! (I don't understand as I didn't eat anything out of the ordinary yesterday). Then my 09.57 reading when I woke up properly was 5.5. Just a thought, but does anyone know if leaving a strip not quite in the SD Codefree, ready to be pushed in & the...

Unfortunately I use it because I have an extreme intolerance to lactose (so much so that Peterborough City Hosp stopped the test after 3 readings as I was going off the chart! What I find a bit weird is that I can cope with some goats' or ewe's milk cheese, & (apparently because it's so hard)...

How do you like the Arla Lactofree cream? I've taken to having that in my coffee too now: before I was only using their Lactofree milk, cheese & spreads (butter & soft cheese (like Philadelphia)). I think it's a winner!

Hi All, 5.9 @ 08.40 this am. So much for a lie-in! :arghh:

Evening all: BG 5.4 @ 5.00 this am. Perhaps I should wake up in the middle of the night more often! ;-)}

Had to visit MiL & her brother Tue/Wed to take him for a bladder cancer check up (all ok on that score) but didn't take my meter :banghead: Reading Tue 6.0 and this am 6.1.:(

6.0 this morning, & the PIP f2f is out of the way now, so hopefully stress levels will reduce, & with them will go the fbg readings!

Glad we didn't venture any further East than Hereford today then! ;-)}

41C @ 17:19! Where are you: Death Valley????

5.3 on Friday, 5.5 yesterday & 6.1 this morning @ 06.37. I think I'm starting to fret about a PIP f2f tommorrow, hence the rise in both fbg & BP. Anyway I'll retire in 43 weeks & 3 days (not that I'm counting!)

That looks really lovely; I wonder if Mrs GOP will make me some. (I'm not trusted to not mess up the kitchen as I wobble a lot on my pins due to some of my other probs!) ;-)}

Evenin' all! 5.3 this am @ 06:17 then back for a snooze!

After 3 mornings of 6.5, 6.0 & 5.8, I was 3.5 this morning!?!

Thanks for sharing the interesting article. Do you know if it works with lactose free milk? Just another one of my problems!

Yes: I don't know what Tesco are up to at the moment; they've stopped selling KoKo yoghurt and a number of lactose-free cheeses, which makes my life somewhat awkward.

Didn't take one yesterday morning, but it was 5.5 this am after a 4.9 last night. A lot of us seem to be getting higher readings in the morning to the previous night: any ideas why? Is it all down to the liver dump, & how significant is it, health-wise?

@Rachox a veritable thorn in the side of the establishment: I applaud you. It reminds me of my session back in Lincolnshire just after I was diagnosed in 2015 & I was like you in that session. How long will it take for them to catch up?

Thanks for that: I'm in very rural mid Wales, but unfortunately I can't cope with soya any more either: ( I did say I'm awkward!!!) ;-)}

Definitely heading in the wrong direction this morning: 5.8 this am followed by a 65 mile trip down the mountain to visit elderly MiL & her even older brother in a home near the coast. The best bit was a mixed grill (only ate about 8 chips :angelic:) after we'd left for the 65 mile return back...
