All the best with your decision..

Becca - The app was down too, in the end.

The post I made on Sunday night, immediately followed hearing about the outage, and was to the best of my knowledge.
 
Cheekily changing the subject..

How's everyone doing on the D front?

My eyes had an MOT today. Still on the "road."
Flu jab last Thursday.. Was back home at the time of my appointment..

So the forum had an overhaul. (& went a bit quiet.) "carry on diabetes." :D Oh matron...

My diabetes is wearing a blue bikini and drinking cocktails (obviously I’m just doing work and family stuff but the fun my D is having explains readings of 9, 5, 9 and 9 today).

Yep,

Work for me is manic. Slotting some spare room/studio decorations. (Been nearly 18 years since the last.?)
Finishing touches. Put a sly curtain rail up whilst the eye drops wore off.. Not a bad result.


@Antje77 may like it. Bit of a Dutch influence on the new furniture.

Sounds like your diabetes is ‘working 9-5’ Kat.

Started low with 3.4 upon waking after a 7km run last night and followed by another low before lunch, almost went low this evening but Dexcom gave me an alert so averted, phew tiring day..
 
Struggling to get it up tonight, oooh err missus.

Mt Libre is due to be changed tomorrow and is useless now. Been sitting between 2.9 and now LO for around 3 hours. Proper finger test had me at between 5.3 and 3.9 which for me is a tad low. Have had about 5 biscuits and couple of cups of coffee so around 40 g of carbs but it still drops.

Dropped my basal around 1 hour ago to 50% on the pump and dropped from 4.5 to 4.0. Think I may need to keep temp basal on for a few hours more. Off to scoff some jelly babies to see if I can get it up.

Had flu jab on Saturday and BG have been fairly low/constant, not sure if this is affecting my BG

You are full of song this evening @Jaylee :singing: !!

Full of "something.."

Possibly a bit of lurg from a jab. Sort of over it but the BGs have taken a hiding for nothing..
Or I'm just "batting" off what's going round at work...?

Either way.. A "tune a day.. " One fer you.

Thanks @Jaylee, that's really helpful. I'm not about to report anyone on the forum since all of the friends I've come in contact with have been brilliant, supportive, informative and helpful.
I'm always interested in how things work in business and believe in transparency and openness in all things in life

That all sounds like a bit of a handful @smc4761 but it'll be better tomorrow.

Has your mental agility also been tested?
I'm finding a tricky drop lately by about 3pm with no bolus active after a mad session in a new position at work? Though if had brief experience & have a knack of staying on top..

No wonder none of the non Ds are up for it...
 
I am an aunt!
My best friend delivered a perfect little baby girl named Famke at 9 pm!

It wasn't an easy one and took a long time. With a grand total of 8 hours sleep since sunday morning and having had quite a short night on saturday too, I haven't followed much on the forum and don't plan to until I've had a good bit of catching up on sleep.

Picture will follow :)
