Hi it is a good thing to blend your own so I am going to buy a blender.

Since then been put on food supplement drink due to weight loss and malabsorption so finding it very difficult indeed to calculate how muchNovorapid I need

Am dreading my next Hb because I had an Obstruction of the small Bowel a while ago; have always been thin but lost a lot more weight so have been put on a food supplement drink full of carbs and it is very difficult to get the amount of correct units of insulin in against the amount of carbs.

Hi at times, but not very often, I can tend to worry what my blood sugar is. I am Type 3C (Pancreatic). I am going to the local Wellbeing Centre to see if they can help. They do have a good reputation. Good luck

Thanks for the link and I am very pleased that there will be a new support group for Pancreatic related problems; Type 3C in particular

5.6 this morning

Hi I always take my Creon but sometimes it has no effect whatsoever so I have to increase my dose. The latter happens even if I eat exactly the same food. Variable results and blood sugars practically impossible to predict but I do monitor regularly. However my Hb was 6.6

I had been concerned about how my Hb would turn out following a dreaded Hospital stay where that actually took the Novorapid Insulin Pen from my handbag!!! I was furious They then mis-managed my Diabetes as they sometimes do in Hospital. However, my Diabetic Nurse told me it was 6.6 so I am now...

I do remember I had terrible tremor I just could not control the jerky movements of my hands and dropped a lot of items

I just used to fall asleep all over the place; it could have been dangerous. Also made my legs swell up to enormous proportions so I will not be taking the drug ever again
