[QUOTE="poemagraphic, post: 2055605, member: 503830"] Happy Monday team Thank you all for your well wishes. My nose is not so sore and my eye is blacker, that said my pride is well bruised (being a Leo us lions don't take kindly to bashing ourselves) [IMG]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/file:///C:/Users/Paul/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image001.png[/IMG] SO... Down to business Forgot to test first thing, went in the shower had brekkies (eggy bread with bacon and 3 cherries... Mmmm! Coffee and double cream) stabbed my finger watched the blood sucked up the strip and saw the screen flash up 5.8 Now today Mon 20th I start my 7th week on insulin and am off to see, for the first time, my diabetes specialist at the hospital. I am unsure what he will think about my 30% reduction in insulin and my 50% reduction in Glicaside in 7 weeks! I know what I think he should say.... (My daily average is 6.0) However that might differ hugely from what he actually does say. Watch this space as 'they' say! Have a great day Ya all Po [COLOR=#ff0000]UPDATE:[/COLOR] I have just returned from my hospital appointment. Quote from 'The diabetic specialist' after downloading my reader readings... [COLOR=#0000b3] [B][I]"In my twelve years of working in this field this is the best set of figures I have seen. I have only seen two or three other sets of readings that come anywhere close to this in all that time!"[/I][/B][/COLOR] He went on to say... [COLOR=#0000b3][B][I][U]"I want you to stop taking insulin with immediate effect!"[/U][/I][/B][/COLOR] [B][I]O M G![/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
