    Eat vegetables

    I cant really agree with that... because of all the chemical sprays and fertilsers... I love butternut squash skins roasted and so does my dog but unless I have grown them myself I could not use. Same with things like lemons... why do they wax them? What zest goes in to processed lemon cakes...

    Eat vegetables

    Nowadays I think of looking back at the way the human evolved is quite alarming to me that this keeps getting mentioned. No matter how we were and surving a limited amount of years in the dark ages due to loads of factors... but our life expectancy has grown, as we evolved... so something in...

    Eat vegetables

    Some bowel issues need less fibre. Even certain veg with shells or skins or being leafy will cause hell. We are all individual, and differences can be so huge! Even on veg..

    Eat vegetables

    Crikey, feel strange now that I have to eat cooked broccoli everyday! I eat at least 3 good portions everyday and some days in veg curries or vegetable hash it could be up to 8 veg a day. Mine all have to be mushy veg and overcooked broccoli to go thru colon and digestive system. Never eat...

    Choose one: CGM or Pump?

    I wish I could properly relate to people how much my funded CGM has chsnged my life for the better. I have just submitted information to my CCG panel for further funding (as an exceptional case). I sent in 8 written pages of positives and a stack of my log books as evidence. I hope that...

    Choose one: CGM or Pump?

    Had all of them. For me loss of pump is my choice (because I so prefer being back on injections now). My Cgm though is my preferred choice to keep as it enables management better and my living better. Being out in cold or heat and with my dog with cgm I know I'm safe all the time... When...

    Advice

    You need to get a current B12 test and results done. No point conjecturing on 1/2 results now and what might be. I was diagnosed with PA. A GP stopped them 3 years after they were started. I thought, ok lets just wait for them to dive down and get a GP in England to sort out when we move...

    Overwhelmed with life..

    When we moved to this home one day before I had my 1st mastectomy -all I coukd think about was to get home sorted for my hubby, so that he would be ok... Did it really matter? No, not in the whole context of things. 30 months on, still here and now, although I know he will be ok and things...

    Overwhelmed with life..

    I wouldnt worry to be honest about housework. My saying is that a clean house is for people that can afford cleaners! Otherwise so long as you have clean undies-well to be honest, what else matters? Me and hubby just went minamilist... been that way for me so long as I can remember. ivf...

    Seizures

    It depends upon what you are deeming as a seizure... Personally I can act totally different with night/daytime hypos. Hypos can vary according to how fast levels are dropping... ie if its a gradual slow hypo it is less likely to be a scarey for the individual helping (parent) than if its an...

    T1 & tinitus?

    Tinnutis after an operation. You can get it in one ear only or sounding like its going across the whole inside of head. Stress makes it worse.

    Diabetes-related distress linked to higher HbA1c in teens with type 1 diabetes

    I think this is made worse nowaadays from the amount of pressure from trying to fit in with friends, the quantity of take aways, shops etc. I had just one corner shop that sold food and hardly the qty of sweets/snacks/fizzy drinks etc. So much pressure from social media etc too.. So wish...
