[QUOTE="Energize, post: 2020131, member: 28960"] I've had several GAs but not for a few years and, like you, not when I was using the Libre. Hopefully, the anaesthetist will appreciate the benefits of easy-scan, even if he still needs to check blood glucose levels. This surgery (middle ear reconstruction plus clearing Mastoid bone etc) is at a different (very well-known) hospital rather than local hospital so very mich more 'conveyer belt' atmosphere :( Oh well, only for the day, hopefully ;) I think this is quite common attitude, showing lack of knowledge and education. Type 1s seem to be told how to carb count re Insulin so why they [HPCs] can't put 2 and 2 together for Type 2s beats me. [/QUOTE] Ha Ha, I'm taking a packet of walnuts with me so I can eat something once fit to eat, or in the car on the way home! I would take some cheese, ham or hard boilded egg etc if I thought I'd be able to keep them cool ;) If they offer any food later, it'll be sandwiches, of course, so wouldn't want that. I'm expecting my glucose levels to be higher than desirable after operation so walnuts should be good. Eating them should help my own insulin circulate but, if not, I'll have some Glipizide handy as soon as I'm out of the door ;) (Probably only 1/2 tablet, though, and see how it goes ;) ) ;) [/QUOTE]
