Insulin
So I went back to the pre conception clinic today and meet with the nurse that I had met previously. She was not very nice at the last emergency appointment and could not understand the pain after pricking issues. So there I was today & not feeling too good but..... it was like she had had a transplant and was lovely.

She had found an alternative testing site lancet for me, when I was unable to test, she did not mind.
After asking me, if I was willing to pay for the Libre, she booked me on to the Libre Education course (Yeap!!!!!) I’ll get one Libre kit and will have to purchase the test units myself after that (Libre do this in most hospitals, so if you want to test it before spending on it then ask for a space on a course)

The other excellent news is that I more than likely won’t have to start on insulin as my fructosamine levels had shown a drop from HBAc of 17mmol to around 9mmol in three weeks so if I continue with the LCHF diet and add the gym to it, then she believe that my levels will be around 7 and I should be ok to start TTC.

I’m so so happy.
