Forgive me for I have sinned Today, I spent a wonderful day visiting friends in Southwell. I was very good lamb salad with only water to drink :angelic: But late in the after noon we went to a wonderful cream parlour that made its own icecream I was led into temptation by friends (ok with...

Good morning people Today, Vampira, has told me my levels are 5.9. Looks like today is going to be a rather hot one for many of us, so enjoy the wonderful start to the weekend

Ian, I would avoid such misery, I would only enjoy 2 years 363 days, then take a 2 day well earn holiday, then start all over again:angelic:

Hi Allanmax Welcome to the club, you have been giving lots of good advice above, and in these early days, like any club, getting used to the rules is very confusing. But ask plenty of questions, even if you think you should know the answer, it is the way I am learning

Hi Mick I was diagnosed in February, and took up cycling for exercise, and like you I get spikes following the bike ride. As others have pointed out they are to be expected, I take a reading around 90 mins to 2 hours after my ride to see how they are. I have found also, that after 1 hour of...

I am quite shocked that people are not seeing their GP's at least once a year for a review. I am still new to this, having been diagnosed in February, but if it was myself, I would have been badgering to see a GP for review once a year, and if received a brush off I would have taking it to the...

Next stop, entering a room and forgetting why you went in:banghead:

A lot different these days with those massive machines they use now

I have no issue with company recouping money on its investment in time, product development, trials, approvals, because it takes an awful lot of money to get a product to market. What I do object to is where they manipulate the market for profits - e.g. limit supplies, keep prices high due to...

A good hoe is at least 50 years old around here, and then it is only just broken in, bests ones are a lot older and like Triggers broom.

It is a lovely day, so I have taken the afternoon off (I run my own business) and will be taking my dogs for a walk shortly

Oh I am an incomer, even after 30 years, I am still viewed with suspicion. Moved here when girls where young, and wanted them settled for a few years before I left the navy and hassle of find a place. I know Dog in A Doublet well, used to take my two girls skating opposite when the flooded...

Hi Not sure if it is of any help, but I use the attached for my conversions as HbA1c results are now given as mmol/mol

Ian, Same here, live in Northern part of the county, in the Fens, and amazing how many end up in the drains (which visitors think of as rivers). Ramsey 40ft being notorious for those caught unawares

Good morning to everyone. Lady Vampira has informed me I was 6.2 this morning. Hope you all have a terrific Thursday

Hi DiaBethic95, I have yet to knock a sensor off, but I had my first sensor fail on Monday, it just stopped after taking a reading, and I got message "Your Sensor is not working. Please remove your sensor and start a new one" I then telephoned Freestyle support, and after a wait on...

Gold star for the Nurse. Perhaps, we could arrange for an official recognition for health professionals who go above and beyond what is required.

@CanadianGuy I have great sympathy with you and anxiety with blood being taken. I have had a phobia of needles all my life, as at age 5 I had a lumbar punch, which was not pleasant in the mid 1960's for a kid. Since then if I have to have blood taken, my veins play hide and seek and have had...

Hi JuJu13 I too am on Metformin SR and had all the associated problems you get with Metformin - sometimes making sure I had unrestricted access to a toilet. I have found taking them half way through a meal has reduced the side affects I was getting significantly, and I take 2 with breakfast...
