Good afternoon all, Has anyone had problems in having their usual Tresiba flexpen prescription fulfilled? My chemist today said it was out of stock for the foreseeable future so I’ve googled and Diabetes.org.uk are saying it’s not available from august 2023 until January 2024 but 3ml...

Hi all. Hoping someone with some experience of this tech can offer some thoughts. In the settings of the Shuggah app there’s an option to use the blue tooth raw data from the Libre 2 but apply it to the x-drip (who make Shuggah, I gather), algorithm. When you use this option you have to...

Hello all, I don’t post much but I’m an avid reader and I pick up such a lot of information from all of you experts. I’m having a really hard time with my type 1 after having 10 years of no real problems and a good quality of life and good hBA1cs and blood sugars. I’ve hit my 50s and think...

Hi all, Had a great meeting with my new DSN yesterday. She's phoned me this morning and said she's referring me to an Endo as she's surprised that as a Type 1 diagnosed in February, I hadn't yet been referred to a consultant. This might be a dim question, but what's the usual form in one of...

Hi All, I've just been for an appointment with my DSN. She's moved me to Humalog to replace Apidra, as apparently there is a production problem and Apidra won't be available until December. Pharmacists and NHS are running out fast. Just thought I would give other Apidra users a "heads up" in...

Hi all, Apologies if I only ever seem to post when I need help, but being new to all this, I'm not confident enough to pitch in with my experience yet, as ......well, haven't really got that much!! :? I've been doing ok until the last two weeks and now I'm really struggling. My DSN...

Good Evening, I'm still new to all this - diagnosed in Feb and still in Honeymoon Period. This is my third posting so I really apologise if I'm asking too much, but I can't say enough how much this forum helps me..... I upped my Lantus last Thursday from 7 to 8. I waited a few days for it to...
