    No....first I've heard of it. I take it has to do with the amount of carbs in the bread causing the digestive system to pump extra "stuff" into its system to digest the bread ?? I'll keep an eye out for it. Hope your teeth are starting to settle down. Have a good weekend.....

    Yes. On Gliclazide, Morphine patches, Astorastatin (?) and Gabapentin. Use Co-codamol 30/500 when I need a bit of extra relief. Didn't yesterday and haven't used my Diazepam (used for muscle spasms) for 3 week. Just one of those days.

    To be fair, it was my 3rd creamy cup of the brown nectar. Just never put 2 and 2 together.....until I was sipping my coffee, looking at my readings and wondering what I had done wrong. Learning curve, learning curve. :-)
