Not a good day, woke at 4am in horrid pain,felt sick, sweaty just blurgh.
Stayed in bed all morning checked BG it was 8.0

Quick edit to add if I don't post for a couple of days it's because I'm in bed feeling sorry for myself

@Shar67
Hi, sorry I can't help you as I don't understand 3c but as I'm sure you are missing mrspuddleduck and I just want to support you in any way I can. Sending you hugs and hoping things improve for you. At least today sounded a bit better. Will it help if you know I will read your comments each day?
 
@Hiitsme thank you, I am still in contact with MrsP but it is such a shame she isn't on here.
The 3c diabetes just complicates an already complicated health situation.
 
I wouldn't have even heard of 3c except MrsP and her fight for a 3c section which I thought was a good idea. It does seem that 3c is a particularly difficult type to manage and you need all the support possible. Very pleased to hear you are in touch with her, please send her my best wishes although she probably won't know who I am but I've read a number of her posts and I hate the idea that people feel they have to leave whatever the reason. I accept a lot of people just use the forum for a short time and that's it but she was so willing to help others and I'm sure is missed very much.
As I've posted on this thread I will know when you update. Take care.
 
Good readings today. 5.2, 5.2, 5.4, 5.3
Hurray
Porridge
Salad bagel
Noodles and stir fried veg
Sneaky little Danish pastry (well I have been good)
Neighbour has given me aubergine stuffed with walnuts and spices, so that is lunch tomorrow sorted
