I had a lovely birthday, thanks for all the good wishes! 6.8 this morning, i’m so baffled….and frustrated. Gym today was 50 min of walking, shoulder, biceps and triceps weights. Heading for a nice drive today to meet up with an old high school buddy. Will hit up a local garden centre too…my...

I’m back…it’s my birthday today and I did say I’d come back with a progress report…. So, my blood sugar readings were creeping up to levels I just haven’t experienced before. After a good long chat with myself I decided to go extremely low carb….less than ten a day and less if possible. It’s...

6.9 today. I got most of my results back, and although my A1C is up it’s not as bad as I thought at 6.4 (46-47). Still waiting on fasting insulin and c peptide. My vitamin b12 numbers are fine, but ferritin is low. Will chat with doctor in a few hours. I think I need to consider adding...

7.1. My brain can’t take this…. Did go for an ultrasound and then my bloodwork today. Hopefully will get some answers…..and not more questions. No gym today as I was booked. Nice walk around the ponds, the ducks and geese and making a huge and wonderful racket. Did some damage on the credit...

Loosing my patience…7.0 today. I did have a bit of a revelation though….low hemoglobin does cause higher blood sugar readings. I need to get this fixed to see if that’s the problem. Bloodwork tomorrow. I expect A1C will be high because of all this. The doc is testing b12 levels, diet is not...

6.5…..I’m over this… Ok, it’s all ok… Gym was shoulders, biceps and triceps, a 30 min walk. Just finished my first phone doctor appointment…I hate this. So I’ll get a refill for my thyroid meds…but just for 3 months, no refills. Ahhhhh…I’ve been on the same meds and dosage for years. He did...

I use, on occasion, a Dexcom g7 which can be calibrated. I generally ignore the readings on the first day and do fingerprick. If the numbers on the Cgm are too good, or bad, to be true I double check. I find my morning readings are way off. I have a love/hate relationship with the...
