I travelled through Asia couple years ago and didnt have any problems. I don't know much about countries you mentioned, but its all about doing your research and deciding if its safe. There will always be some kind of risk, but it shouldn't stop you from enjoying your life. I travelled on my own...

Very interesting reading. This graph shows exactly my basal pattern! When I was on injections I always needed a snack at 3/4pm. I'm not convinced though that its the main cause of your problems. I believe you need to work out how to bolus for protein/fat, especially if your diet is lowish in...

Not great :( I was going to message you that I cant go to conference in February. Gutted as I'm sure it will be great fun. Hope to see you in March, on our next meet up

Done. It took me a while as it needs to be done through moderator

Go for a walk and drink water. I have exactly the same problem today. Whole day high with no apparent reason. Very frustrating!

Top Top up your lantus and give correction of novorapid for now.

As 23rd seems not be a good date for many people shall we change it for 30th? What do you think? @robert72 @Emmotha @Type1Bri @xAoifex @tim2000s @rachel162 @paulpapa

I like this cheese biscuits good as a fast breakfast http://www.diabeticgoodbaking.com/2016/01/cheese-biscuits.html

I suppose its something you need to decide for yourself. Its the same with homemade mayonnaise, hollandaise sauce, eggnog, soft boiled eggs or icecream. To be 100% safe you can buy pasteurized eggs or pasteurize them by yourself. Here is a website on how to do it...

Our meetups are great! It doesn't take much time to organise them, I book a table in a pub and then post it here, Very easy :)

Unfortunately we meet up in London only. You could always start a new meet up group, if you find few others wanting to join:)

How wonderful to find your post today! I'm really glad you liked it @daisyduck :) @robert72 If you managed bountry truffles I'm sure you wont have a problem with this:)

Happy New Year to Everyone :) Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a good start to 2016! As agreed, our next meet up will be on 30 of January at 2pm. The pub is in Holborn, near the Holborn underground station on central line. Cant wait to see you all there and I hope we will welcome some...

Apart from cutting carbs (but to be honest I don't think its your main problem, as insulin should cover them) I think the only way to become more sensitive to insulin is to be more active. Sports helps a lot and can make MASSIVE difference. Try something what suits you, can be fast walk for 30...

I don't think there is any 'official' limit. Its very individual, some people are insulin resistant and take masses, some just couple of units. I personally don't like taking big amounts and avoid very carby meals. I don't really know if we can safely eat, lets say 300g of carbs in one go and...

It happened to me before with no apparent reason. Maybe stress? I cant comment on honeymoon period, as I don't think Ive ever had it. I take more or less the same amount of insulin from the beginning

are you type1 or 2? on insulin ? Drinking lots of fluids helps to reduce sugar level. Dropping by 6mmol is normal

I came across this http://amongfriends.us/order.php Looks a bit 'cheap' but they have thousands of followers on facebook so I assume it is good https://www.facebook.com/LowCarbingAmongFriends/timeline?ref=page_internal

Codefree is good and cheap. Other meters, maybe more modern and with few features, have really expensive strips.
