    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Surprisingly 5.8 despite being in bed until 11am!

    A wakeup call well deserved!

    I think the occasional fall from the horse has to be expected. I think I said in your other thread, you're a human being and not a machine. Being perfect every single day is an impossible dream IMHO. You do your best with the hand life dealt you. If you feel you're doing your best for the...

    The Fool Learns NOTHING!

    Don't beat yourself up over this. You're a human being, not a machine and I doubt there's a diabetic of any type that hasn't lost some control at some stage. I hope you feel better soon.

    Type one and hba1c

    Mine was pretty bad too, last time. 8.5 and I've been playing this game for over 3 decades! Don't worry, it happens. The good news is that there are LOTS you can do to improve the numbers: - Look at your BG numbers, where are your high ones? Why are they high at that time and what can you do...

    Where do they stick you ...

    I hit the deck after my first blood test, as a kid. Ever since I've ranged from severely phobic to mildly agitated when it's blood test time. I insist on laying down for it just in case I feel the urge to pass out. Always fine from inside the arm but have had a few from the back of the hand. I...

    worst diabetes incident?

    I wish I'd been more open, especially as a child and teenager. It's tough when you're young as you probably fear being judged by the ignorant or bullied by the cowards. As an adult, I'm far less concerned these days. It got to a point when I just thought 'I don't give a s... I'll tell who I...

    Holidays

    I take EVERYTHING in hand luggage. I want that with me at all times, in case my suitcase is lost/stolen and some things can be affected by temperature in the hold.

    Is overheating a diabetes thing?

    I sometimes overheat after a large meal but only if it's later on the day. I put that down to the BG spiking up a little higher. In general I feel the heat more than the cold, though, often perfectly warm whilst others are freezing. I don't know if that helps at all, just my experience. Oh, and...
