Meet Bianca, Binx for short:- She's a tortoiseshell and white (or Calico, depending on where you're from!) and she's owned us for 2 years. She's a bonkers, bossy, furry little hurricane who loves chasing balled up bits of paper, baubles (keeping her away from our Christmas tree is a flippin'...

Well done you star!!!

Well, this music has successfully freaked me out for the rest of this week...

Thanks everyone - I'll leave it until tomorrow just to be on the safe side. You know what the really bad thing is? If I hadn't asked the nurses on the ward I was on about taking medication after having had the scan I wouldn't have known - nobody offered the information to me at all :shock...

I've recently had to have a CT scan with the IV contrast dye and was told to stop taking my Metformin because of the contraindications between it and the dye. I have been given different advice on when to start taking it again, though. One nurse said 48 hours, another said 3 days and looking it...

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii am the chaaaaaaaaaampion myyy friiiiiiiiiiiiend.......

This just had me giggling for ages, between bouts of going "aawww" embarrassingly loudly...

*cough*

I SO wish this was a gif..... :lol:

Thank you everyone :D

I second the cinnamon! It's lovely on porridge with Asdas sweetener (with the yellow lid, I don't remember what it's called); which is pretty much Splenda at a fraction of the price! A teaspoon of sugar free/low sugar (whichever you find you can tolerate better) jam is lovely as well.

I get something similar from my mother, although it's not about diabetes. I suffer with depression and any (and every) time I'm a bit quiet or feeling a bit introverted she says "oh you're feeling down?" "it's because you've come off of some of your meds"... ARGH!! Then again if I so much as...

Thank you everyone! I had my first appointment at the pre-pregnancy clinic yesterday and it went really well :D I now have to have monthly HbA1c tests that coincide with the clinic appointments and I had more good news... My HbA1c wasn't 44....It was 42 which puts me at 6% :D :D :D I'm...

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!! I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and enjoyed the celebrations :D I have yet more good news to share, if nobody minds me being a bit smug...? The doctor I'm under at diabetes center at the hospital set me a HbA1c target of 53 for this Friday (which is...

That's great news! Well done you!!

RRB, big HUGE (((HUGS))) for your daughter, the first Christmas without my Dad was really tough so I can fully sympathize. I hope it wasn't too upsetting xxx

My goals for 2013: *To try at least 2 new meats (this year I tried venison, moose and reindeer) *To come off of Glimepiride and Victoza (find out if I can by January 4th) *To start a family (particularly excited about this one!)

We got an early Christmas present when my hubby got a new job 2 weeks ago; which he is enjoying immensely and is coming home happy and not stressed in the least. When I got asked what I would like for Christmas, I asked for a Kelley Armstrong book and an iTunes voucher. I got far FAR too...

I have the iBG Star meter and use the app that goes with that. Previously I had used the Diabetes UK app.

Sending huge hugs, positive vibes and loads of healing, happy and good thoughts to you and little Jakob. Stay strong, hon and please keep us all updated. ((((HUGS))))
