Oh @ickihin how did it go! It is not nice having those symptoms....been there....etcWhat a morning! And afternoon! Home now after a day in cardiac care unit. Awaiting a scan/ct angiogram. Palpatations, breathlessness and heavy chest.
Not to bad today thanks had a bad one yesterday but still struggling on .Thank you @eldergarth ...very much. How are you today?
Please tell me the breathlessness goes away? I've had palpatations for months but gp said he doesn't know why. I thought thyroid playing up but had the angina spray which helped but didn't stop the breathlessness. Scan will hopefully show us what's going on.Oh @ickihin how did it go!

Are you OK now Vicky? You must have had a bad scare, what are the hospital saying?What a morning! And afternoon! Home now after a day in cardiac care unit. Awaiting a scan/ct angiogram. Palpatations, breathlessness and heavy chest.
Thanks Barbara I can give you hug back but only gentle oneMorning all, hope everyone wraps up warm - it's coooold down here! Welcome back @13lizanne, we missed you. Sending hugs to everyone who needs it, especially @ickihun @eldergarth @tina_marie and @ellagy. I could do with a hug too, my younger brother has just found out he's at risk of becoming diabetic too. He had a health check up not long ago and the doctor said he needs to make some lifestyle changes.

More investigations up coming. Given an angina spray and asprin for heaviness in chest. Heart attack was ruled out. Discharged but still having breathing restriction when not resting. Palpatations been going on for months and dizziness too.Are you OK now Vicky? You must have had a bad scare, what are the hospital saying?
Hugs galore Barbara! Would your brother consider low carb?Morning all, hope everyone wraps up warm - it's coooold down here! Welcome back @13lizanne, we missed you.

I am looking into weightloss surgery too, please keep us informed.What a morning! GP ruled out spondolitis, I felt like kissing him. He seems to think insulin is adding my weight. I agree. Well its not helping, that's for sure.
I guess I do need bariatric surgery, after all. It cannot make matters any worse. I'm slowly dropping protein but no weight loss. Nothing helps me lose weight. I'll keep an eye on weight but I'm not prepared to risk damage for weight loss. (Stopping insulin, to lose weight). My best mate is nearly blind. She's slim but cannot see much.
I would think that the 'Professional' should accept that not everyone is a machine! It would seem that your body has decided you should be 13st....So listen to your partner and step back from the grumpy ol' person you are about to becomeI increased my Insulin by 2 units over a week ago (now on 46 units a day) and there has been only a very slight improvement on blood sugars. My fear is putting on additional weight, when I have to shed another stone and get down to 12 stone - so the Professionals keep telling me. I have tried fasting from when I get up until 1.30 - 2pm everyday for over a week now. My partner says I need to eat, as I am moody, irritating and snappy at the slightest thing.
So today have decreased my Insulin to 44 units a day. But, I really think it was the switch from 'bog' Standard Metformin to the SR version of Metformin almost a month ago that is responsible for my erratic blood sugars. My weight has stayed the same for the past 9 weeks at exactly 13 stone.
Will do kittylitter.I am looking into weightloss surgery too, please keep us informed.
