I’m amazed, you were only doing a blood test and they reacted like that! I wonder what they’d have said if you’d pulled down your trousers to inject into your thigh - or bum?
I warn people, well friends mainly, that there’s going to be a tummy and maybe knicker reveal when I inject in midriff or stomach.

Thanks for the welcome @hh1 and @Fairygodmother.
Diabetes not behaving itself today, and Fiasp taking a while to work after a set change. Sometimes it drops me very quickly, others times, like today slowly!!
I'm still on mdi but there still seem to be days when insulin works differently - or maybe it's my body that does! All part of the mysteries of T1.....
 
Morning chaps. Not feeling a million percent today, but got a full day in uni learning about pregnancy, childbirth and care of newborns. We’re being allowed into the inner sanctum of the midwifery suite... having nearly had a baby land in my lap on my second day on placement when the truck went over a series of speed bumps, it’s not before time! I’m not driving today, so I can cwtch up in the car and feel sorry for myself on the way.

Not much else to report, D running tickety-boo. Cyborg status: satisfactory :borg:
