I've got my annual appointment coming up, and I was going to discuss the Abbot Libre thingy now that it's potentially available on the NHS. I'm not clear from their website though as to whether it's considered suitable for pre-meal readings to decide boluses? If so, how or if, would it...

Mine will be due next year on my three year anniversary (great reminder and present). Just planning ahead, how long does it typically take to get the renewal through and I'm assuming I can continue to drive if the license is back in for renewal but not yet expired? Thanks

Anyone else got news on this? I had a call from the hospital today saying that Roche are voluntarily recalling all SS rapid-Ds for the Insight due to reported instances of needles breaking off. Options given to me were go back to the Teflon sets (which I'll try for a while), go onto the Combo...

River Ayr Way today. 63km in 6hrs 51 mins, a PB by about an hour for that distance on a tougher course than the previous PB. More to follow later, but another kick in the nuts for Type 1 Let's all kick Type 1 in the nuts at least once a week.

Finding the oil and gas industry slightly frustrating at present Reflected in my blog. Don't read if of a sensitive disposition

So, longs story short etc Sunday - full set change, cannula (90degree, steel), tubing (70cm), new cartridge. All changed after my long run in the morning. No pain from cannula either on insertion or after From late Monday onwards control started to deteriorate, can't really take any account...

Anyone used one of those self design web site apps? Any good, intuitive, easy for a dimwit like me to use? I'm looking to produce a website with a link to my blog, mainly because I'm getting so many requests for help on diabetes management and exercise that I could do with a Q&A section, basic...

First time this has happened to me. Changed the cannula yesterday after a run, no discomfort putting it in or since. Went for another run at lunchtime today and after getting out of the shower noticed the top of the connector looking red. Again no discomfort but I changed it again anyway for...
