I like dairylea as well, and also just Philadelphia and tomato on low carb toast.

I had a sensor die on me when I’d been working in the garden with the sun on it for 2 hours on a hot summer day. It showed a very low reading first, then after about 10 mins it stopped working altogether.

I have had one sensor fail in the last 12 months. I completed abbots online form and they replaced it straight away.

I’m very new to fast acting insulin (4 weeks in) but I am finding what works for me with a higher carb meal is to take around 2/3 of what I think I’ll need. Then watch what happens and if blood sugar rises more Than I expect within a couple of hours I take the remaining third. Might not work...

I haven’t tried it yet but I found this one https://www.elizabethskitchendiary.co.uk/tunisian-orange-cake/#tunisian-orange-cake-recipe

The cake sounds lovely. There’s a cafe near here which sells a Tunisian orange and almond cake. It uses a small amount of breadcrumbs and ground almonds but no flour. I’m thinking of trying it and substituting sweetener for the sugar. My regular basket includes cauliflower, broccoli, green...

As you say HbA1c is a long term measure of blood sugar so it’s not easy to shift it in three or four weeks. If you can give us an idea of what you are currently eating we can try and make some suggestions which may help.

No problem! The most common effect of dapaglifloxin is needing to wee more as your kidneys work to push the sugar out. Some people don’t have any problems with Metformin, in others larger doses can cause diarrhoea. Neither of these drugs are likely to cause your blood sugar to fall too low, so...
