    Another pig joke.

    I honestly don't believe a word of this; just a lot of porkies.

    Hi. Good move. This site had helped me tremendously. I have no doubt it will be a source of info and support for you too.

    Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

    6.2 around 9.30am yesterday...to be honest, I'd prefer a 4.9...and some of this sunshine everybody else seems to have had this "summer"...and a small lottery win (eg. £4mill)...emm...and world peace (except for people I don't like or who I haven't found out that I don't like yet)...

    Vitamin K

    I stand corrected...well, I'm sitting down actually...evidently vitamin K doesn't thin or thicken blood but can work against blood thinning meds used to prevent clotting.

    Vitamin K

    I only know that it can be (ie. potentially) harmful to kidney dialysis patients...and that it can thin the blood so that maybe it might make the effect of thinning agents more powerful and so make natural clotting of the blood more difficult. That said, it is supposedly very helpful in...

    Hi @BurningFuse - looks like you are up for it. Good luck. As for your question - "what do you say about your diet to kind people who invite you round to dinner parties?", I have the perfect solution which required very little effort from me; I am passively anti-social and quite horrible because...

    Hi from Fife

    I generally buy a pile of them and freeze them...I take two out to thaw and they are fine for the next three days or so. Smoked cheese slices (some are 0 carbs...try Sainsburys) on a whole roll works for me if my waking level is ok...but I do often just have half. It has been known however for a...

    spider study

    Nice...I shall satisfy myself with being amusing by default. I think I first hear the Irish version of it about 45 years ago...from my Irish grandmother!

    Website Response times

    Thanks for that. Does the administrator post this kind of info somewhere that we can easily see that there is an issue with the site outside of the usual maintenance to be expected...so that we are aware of it to prevent us looking for faults with out own equipment? It is always reassuring to...

    Website Response times

    Agreed @Mike D - if someone would just post some kind of explanation as to what the problem/s is/are, I would feel that at least it was definitely being addressed rather than us all just being left to wonder (once we have, very frustratingly, ruled out problems with our own equipment). As for...

    I am ready to chuck it...ridiculous problems for a site of such significance to members. Over the past two days or so, using desktop, laptop or mobile...could not even get to the log in page...and when I finally did, comments/replies I tried to post failed as the page just locked up. When it is...

    5.4 this morning...that's a good little run of low 5s.

    I got on today ok...just wanted to to kick something last night though! Surely, the site management team are aware of this issue; why are they not resolving it? The site is great in every way (and I think actually very important) except this. Thanks for the encouragement though. I don't want to...

    Over the past couple of days, I couldn't even get the log in page up never mind actually get in..and that was trying at various times. I usually post in the wee hours anyway when traffic is less. I got here today ok...but to say it is slow would be an understatement...this needs to get easier of...

    Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

    5.3 for the past two mornings...which is nice BUT...has anyone else had problems getting onto the site? I have been trying for 2 days! I have no problem with any other site but this one is driving me crazy. I have no idea how it finally got me here after about 25 attempts! I hate to say it, but...

    Fluids and less thinking. I feel for you, @Juju13 - and hope it all settles real soon. Take care.
