Hello again Hopeful34, Thanks for that - I did not think about adding the @ creating an alert / notification that a Members Forum name had been mentioned in a message - different to receiving a thread reply notification. Chris

Hello Hopeful34, Thanks for your message and I am glad to hear that the Opsite dressings / big plasters might be helpful to someone that you know. Do You mean that for example when I replied to you above that I should type: Hello @Hopeful34 ? I have seen something like that [adding the @]...

Hello ElenaP, Thanks for your message, I do know that human nature is often as you described with regard to replying on a Forum. I have experienced not receiving replies to what I knew was very useful information many times on some Forums for quite technical matters / Construction Engineering...

SORRY TO MEMBERS FOR USING ALL CAPS - MY USUAL KEYBOARD HAS MALFUNCTIONED AND AN OLD ONE THAT I HAVE FOR TEMPORARY USE UNTIL A NEW ONE IS DELIVERED HAS THE FAULT THAT IT IS STUCK ON CAPS. NOT EVEN A BRIEF / ONE WORD REPLY TO MY OR THE OTHER MEMBERS MESSAGES ABOVE. I CAN ONLY TYPE USING EITHER...

Hello Graeme McBurnie, There are adhesive wound dressings called Opsite / Opsite Plus which I have used after having surgery and they have a central pad which has a very good adhesive border around it - because the dressings are for use after surgery the adhesive should not be anything that...

Hello again Jo, Thanks for your message and for describing some changes that happened to you in previous years. I do know that our bodies can develop changes as we age and that some of our organs for example Liver, Thyroid, Pancreas and others can develop problems which could then affect...

Hello again Rachox, Thank you very much for taking me through the process to enable reply notification emails. I cannot believe that I somehow missed the Preferences option when I did look at my Profile somehow I must not have seen the full list of options although just looking a moment ago I...

Hello again TheSecretCarbAddict, Thanks for explaining about Metformin reducing the amount of glucose being produced by the liver - I don`t know how I got the idea that it worked by increasing insulin production from my pancreas - I wonder if my liver has started to produce more glucose than...

Hello Hopeful34, Thanks for your message. The Surgery is not open after 6pm and none of my friends get home from work until well after 7pm / 7:30pm and as most work in the Construction industry all over London and the surrounding counties most of them leave home not much after 6am depending...

Hello Jo, Thanks for your message and for some suggestions. Can you please also see my very long reply to Member TheSecretCarbAddict so that I don`t have to repeat stuff. I really have thought about any changes that might have caused the recent higher blood glucose test results without...

Hello again TheSecretCarbAddict, Thanks for your message and for including screenshot showing how the dawn phenomenon affected your blood glucose at those times. I am obviously much less concerned about the approximately 30 ocassions in the last 2 years that I described as it seeming strange...

Hello TheSecretCarbAddict, Thank you very much for your message and for the information. I am definitely not trying to contradict anything that you wrote - I am sure that you are correct in some people`s circumstances. I am almost certain that there have been no major ingredient changes in...

Hello Rachox, Thanks for your reply - please excuse this long message but I wanted to explain why I will definitely not be able to ask a Doctor about this: When patients telephone my Doctors Surgery it is a normal situation to be anywhere from 20th to 35th in the queue. Because of that the...

Hello All, I know that the advice about something like this would always be - Ask your Doctor - but I am housebound - have had my Diabetes review blood tests only 2 weeks ago with a good result [45] - so no Doctors review / medication change necessary from that result. Getting a home visit...

Hello ajbod, Thank You very much for your reply and for letting me know about your weight loss over a 4 month period. What worried me was not just the actual amount of weight loss but it was the fact that I lost such a large amount of weight without being able to do any exercise at all - not...

Hello again KennyA, Having read through some of my previous messages on the thread I found a mistake in what I recently wrote to you: I made an error in my previous message to You regarding my weight loss - I have lost about 20 kilos - not 36 kilos. When I was remembering a previous weigh in...

Hello again Oldvatr, Thanks for your message - as you wrote I need to find out if possible what is causing my dehydration - frequent drinking and the resulting frequent urination. As I mentioned previously apart from obviously hoping to find the cause of my dehydration etc I was very concerned...

Hello again Oldvatr, Thanks for explaining that in so much detail - I really appreciate it - I think that you also replied to me about this previously. I did try to take the process that you described in your previous message into consideration regarding my frequent urination / urination...
