    @Marie2, glad to hear your solutions for the dogs are working. Fingers crossed your back heals well and swiftly, trusting that you're taking care of yourself whilst it does xx

    Oh boy, that sounds horrid; do hope they'll all settle back down together, though I'm not sure I'd be keen to risk it any time soon. In the meantime hope you get better soon xx

    I can see why you'd feel a bit disappointed, though better safe and all that. Glad they say it's looking good :)

    Thanks for the update, and keep us posted. I bet 27 Feb feels like ages away though hopefully it'll be worth the wait

    Hi @Marie 2, hope all's well with you and everyone else. @SherwoodT1 have you heard anything yet? Do you have a date for your next meeting at the clinic? And how was your eye test @Nicola M?

    Hi all, thanks for your messages and suggestions, really appreciated. I've woken up this morning and my throat feels much better than it did yesterday though everything else is still in full flow! @Nicola M so glad you're starting to recover though how distressing that it took so long to get...

    Hi all, and thanks for that @Marie 2, worth a read. I've just been struck down by the mother and father of all colds; sore throat woke me up three times last night, worst runny nose I've ever had, and sneezing! I didn't know sneezing hurt so much with a sore throat :shifty: Topped up fast-acting...

    Be calm. Don't be stupid

    The time I find it hardest to avoid panicking is when I'm hypo as I can't bear what it feels like, and I tend to over-react and consume too much of whatever. I'm very conservative in injecting additional insulin; whilst I do it a lot it's always in small doses and I keep checking. I'm not...

    Hi all, not been around for a day or two, wish I'd caught up earlier - @becca59 I had a sensor fall off about ten days ago, replaced it and had exactly the same as you, blood everywhere. Anyway, I phoned Abbott about the one that fell off, and whilst I was talking to a very helpful customer...

Hope you're all doing something you want to this wekend and that you get the weather you want - thundery showers wouldn't be my choice but hey! they might...

    You're quite right @Antje77 my dog was a her; sadly she died very suddenly 4 years ago. My current dog is the same breed though she's a bit bigger and more heavily built than the one in the photo. I just never got around to changing the photo, and it's rather nice to be reminded of her...

    @Antje77 What a brilliant idea, a quiet party for dogs when fireworks are about! I'd bring my dog :)

    Morning all, mixed weather here yesterday, enough breaks in the rain to get some gardening done, heavy showers though thankfully no thunder in between. My dog isn't thrilled by thunder but doesn't panic, whereas one of my friend's dogs was with me yesterday and she's quite traumatised by it...

    Morning all, morning @karen8967, good to see you! I'm guessing everyone's experiencing the not-summer weather to a greater or lesser extent; here in Somerset it's a mudbath in no time when it rains the way it has lately, and more to come. My bgs are affected by high temperatures so I feel as...

    Well done you @Nicola M! I just spent the weekend at my sister's as it was her birthday, and I think I spend two days completely out of range! :hilarious:

    @Antje77, glad you had such a good evening; I'd love the secret of keeping bgs in that range with alcohol and no food! ;)

    Morning all, thanks @Antje77 and @becca59, finally got about 5 hours sleep, back to normal now thanks, feel a bit groggy but I think that's more down to not enough sleep. I'll be checking three times before every injection for weeks now! ;)

    It's nearly one o'clock and I went to bed at 10.30. I managed to inject 7 units of Fiasp instead of Lantus this evening, so I'm paying the price. I realised what I'd done straight away, and it was about an hour after I'd accurately injected Fiasp and eaten a meal. So after this additional...
