Shall we substitute hippo for hypo?
"I had a hippo at 5.30 this morning it was 1.9!"

Reminds me of someone cumbs
I’ve never heard of that one! My GP surgery issued me with a Gluco Rx Nexus, which is a cheap, tacky, unreliable, affordable POS. Readings are regularly 2mmol away from my Libre scanner and Omnipod’s built in meter, which both use Freestyle strips, albeit different ones - these two usually pretty much concur with each other. The Nexus also can’t be downloaded, which makes it next to useless when I go to clinic, as you have to manually scroll through the readings. Not much good for spotting patterns when you can have a dozen a day. Unsurprisingly it’s now in a cupboard, on the advice of my hospital team.Good evening one and all.
Been a tad busy recently with this and that. Missing the chats, trials and tribulations of the forum.
So why am I here now?
Well ......
New home,
New doctors surgery.
New blood glucose monitor.
Now I’m always happy to give anything a chance, but I’d like any feedback on the new meter I’ve been prescribed.
It’s a Nipro Trueyou.
My initial thoughts are.......cheap, tacky, probably unreliable and affordable ( nipro’s big selling point)
I’m currently 4 hrs in with it so obviously things could change, especially with what some of you people may offer as feedback.
Please someone tell me that this is a great piece of kit and not a whole load of s**t.
Goodnight everyone sleep well
Not sure I want or need fancy@therower never heard of it, but it looks more fancy than my very cheap mylife puraX
Night cumbs xNight sweetie x
Good on you. The Aussie slogan has been extended to: Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek (shade), Slide (on some sunglasses).Absolutely.
As a red-head, I am very used to slathering up the sunscreen before leaving the hotel room and re-slathering throughout the day.
I also wore a hat most of the time (a 8-year old boy's one because I have a pin-head) and kept my shoulders covered.
Following the "slip slop slap" mantra at all times.
And is your double a pin cushion ?My stunt double was off that day, so that is my arm and in the background you can see the top of a Lattee, was in Costa the lunch time when I snapped that
I just stay indoors. I turn to ash in the sunGood on you. The Aussie slogan has been extended to: Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek (shade), Slide (on some sunglasses).
And I add Sip (water) to that. I hope the transition back to Autumn reality is not too upsetting !!

Morning all, smooth night in the 5s, tiny blip to 7 at 1am so had a unit to deal with that. Diabetes clinic at the hospital today, let’s see what they say about my 40 HbA1c and ketone levels...
