- being a diabetic and finding restrictions.to life style. people who do not understand the problems one has. not being able to afford to come back to uk for holidays as often, quite expensive. miss some foods that the French do not do. but can live with that French drivers. who love to tail gate. and they love to drive over the white line. in rural areas they are a pain. but get use to it. does put the wind up you. But driving in the UK found that drivers want to get as close as they can. and the traffic. it took me 25 minutes to get to friends house which was less then a mile away. due to traffic.
Hi Everyone, . Have been absent for some months, but lost the password a etc etc. need I say more/
I was the lady who had a heart attack, thinking that it was indigestion.. Well doing ok. although finding it hard with the pacemaker, still get out of breath.
My diabetics is better, a lot lower then before. Have been very naughty, eat most things.. still have 3 monthly tests. which give my diabetise 5.9 better then before. but having trouble with the accu=check/ When I take a pin prick, it is painful, leaves a bruise, on my finger, does anyone else have this, so have not taken reading for a week or so. could it be the little needle itself.
I have to say that even though I have thrown caution to the wind I have felt better/ I eat regular/ have a light breakfast, lunch Bacon sandwich or egg sandwich
Evening meal lamb, salmon, beef greens pots, carrots peas. only a small amount of veg. ice cream sometimes I make a jelly,. and have tinned fruit. with cream
yoghourt plain. have had not ill effects. as I make sure that the meals I have are enough, and I am not left hungry/ I have to say that I have put on weight, which is ok. as when I had the Heart attack, I dropped so much weight , I was skin and bone, Doctor says it was the system going into shock.
So I stopped smoking , and have not had a cig since November, so most of the weight is due to this.
I also drink Milk, and each night I have hot milk with ovaltine,
I seem to be on tablets for everything. ; Now on my report from the lab, my creatine is high, last time 17......... I drink lots of water, so looks like kidneys are not working well another investigation I expect. sorry get a bit down with it all,
thanks for listening. missed you guys you gave me lots of advice. my apologies.... but was feeling rather down wondering what is going to happen next. so could not be bothered about anything in general/ Need to get with it again.
many thanks anne
