Good morning. Breakfast today a very restrained thirty g of Wheat Shreds and forty-four g of banana: [emoji639] units of Fiasp. Packing later, and going to the station to get a ticket as I’m off to see younger daughter and family tomorrow. Excited.

Thank you grantg

The source has it though. Grrrrr!

This from the BMJ states that Type One ‘had a causal effect on severe Covid and death after Covid infection’ Ps left out the digits to prevent a blue box post...

I think that when the figures were crunched, and before vaccines, people with diabetes accounted for a third of deaths https://www.england.nhs.uk/midlands/wp-content/uploads/sites/46/2021/02/PCDS-COVID-statement_22-Jan_FINAL.pdf

Oh yes, coffee can upset the gut. I remember arriving at a hospital where some friends worked to ask for help finding a solution to gut problems. The first thing they said was ‘We’ll make you some coffee’. After a strong black, it was easier to provide samples. Turned out to be tape worm. This...

Your veg sound magnificent! I’m full of admiration. No, I didn’t grow the cavalo Nero, I bought it. I planted some at the beginning of the season but some little unmentionables ate it. Our next door neighbour grew the marrow. I took down our runner beans at the beginning of the week, I miss...

Cooking ahead of time today for tomorrow’s lunch that I’m hosting. It’ll be chicken and mushroom dauphinois with steamed marrow and cavalo Nero followed by apples from our tree topped with cinnamon sponge. I’ve been staring at food since two-o’clock and don’t feel hungry now, but supper’s...

Ninety pounds sterling for a covid vaccine! Which one? The NHS is using Pfizer, I think. I wonder if a limited NHS target means there are spare doses to be sold.

Breakfast, back when the day was getting light, was an indulgent blueberry muffin and an armful of insulin. Spent the rest of the day cleaning the house as I’m hosting the book group here on Friday. Lots of low alarms which I interpret as meaning Imm allergic to housework. I’d rather weed, dig...

A very sad thing to read jaywak. Sending you lasting hugs and sympathy. Tell us about her.

It seems illogical to me that vaccinations for two mutating viruses, influenza and Covid, both of which can cause severe illness or death, are treated differently.

I had covid six years ago when I was seventy. During the phase when I couldn’t breathe properly, and couldn’t lift a hand to phone for an ambulance or raise my voice to call out for help, I was convinced I’d die but was so busy trying to breathe that dying didn’t worry me. Maybe the vaccinations...

Good luck

Despite the continuing advice that people with Type One are affected badly by covid, the main vaccination drive is more sever immune disorders. I suppose we’ll see over the coming months whether or not this is a wise approach. (No numbers!)

I don’t know what my iPhone uses for this site

No, it’s me too Tony. I’ll edit

Nice guidelines state that people with diabetes mellitis are at risk from progression to severe infection should they catch covid. Does this mean that everyone with Type One is eligible for the vaccine? I’m seventy-six and was given flu and Covid vaccines on Saturday, so I’m asking this for all...

I think smartguard uses sensor reading to determine insulin required, at least that’s what the Medtronic user guide says
