Diabetics R Us

Ooo i cant wait cumbs this time next week i will be watching my eldest son getting married im more excited than him haha he keeps telling me to calm down

I cried buckets at my eldest's wedding. Take note, cotton hankies are more absorbant and look far nicer than toilet tissue! Best wishes to the couple, hope everyone has a smashingly memorable day.
 
@Antje77 How come your pizza landed the right way up? Everything that I drop lands butter side down !!

Right here, lass! Pull up a chair and it is good to see you. @derry60
 
I have had a Libre sensor on for a week and am seriously considering ripping it off. I haven't had one as wildly high as this, and it is upsetting me. I keep cross checking it with my meter - anywhere between 0.5mmol/l and 2.5mmol/l higher, mostly around 1.5 to 2mmol/l. Problem is it is so erratic I can't even guesstimate or calculate some sort of average amount higher. I'm doing so much cross checking I may as well stick to my meter and abandon the sensor. Am considering informing Abbott, hoping for a replacement.

Because it landed first on my bare leg with the hot cheese side down and went further down from there. Luckily I had taken the time to take my bg, inject and search for the pizza-cutter, so it hurt only a little
Now I think of it, I burn my mouth a lot less often now I have diabetes and having to do all those things before taking a bite. Must be one of those unexpected benefits of diabetes

Bluetit - You do need to let Abbott know about the erratic nature of this sensor. A steady variance is one thing. It totally doing its own thing is another.
 
Morning all. Nothing planned for the weekend so will just sit and see what takes my fancy

Hope you all have a great one.
