I had my dinner and actually weighed it so know my dose was right. Just tested and meter says 12.9, so I check again and get a 9, hmmm I think and try again (all different, clean, fingers) and 7.1. So posting here before I try again, any bets on the final number or do I just take an average? Grrrr
The advice might be to stop using opaque nail varnish !! I wonder what happens to an insulin pump when some one wearing one is zapped with a defibrillator!! ?Fried pump on toast??Got another two weeks to go, it’s really intense and full on. I absolutely LOVE ITWe did defibrillators today, plus normal CPR. And ran through scenarios starting from arriving on scene to the inevitable conclusion, I don’t normally like role play, but this was surprisingly ok. Highlighted how much I need to work on my upper body strength! But my slightly dodgy shoulders didn’t give way, so I’m happy with that.
And thank you, yeah, I do fixate a little on my cats-ups, I’m at 5.8 now, and quite content.
I’m reluctant to bin this one, there’s a massive bruise under it which I’m not sure I want to see the light of day
Talking of bruises, I got around to removing the nail varnish on my toes last night. I noticed that my right big toenail is purple underneath the polish - it doesn’t hurt (I do have feeling in that toe), there’s no spread of the bruise onto the toe itself, it’s literally just under the nail. Anyone come across this before? I never have. I’ve not kicked anything or dropped anything on it, it’s really odd. I’d never have noticed had I left the polish on and not fancied a change. Not sure whether to ring the DN tomorrow for advice.
I asked about that. Anything electrical on the chest gets ripped off. Pumps elsewhere aren’t an issue (probably) as the zap takes the shortest route between the two electrodes. But if you’re needing zapping, I imagine your insulin pump is the least of your worries.The advice might be to stop using opaque nail varnish !!

Brain flashes (from one of a few remaining neurons? My changeover to a new cartridge ran over by about 36 hours? Maybe the insulin in the tubing is less effective after the usual 72 hours??Higher BSLs on this side of the world.
Maybe the unruly weather is to blame. Strong northerly winds, horizontal rains, abnormally low temperatures for November in Adelaide. No easy way to walk far and watching past episodes of 'Spooks" does get the adrenaline flowing.
Ah well, I shall go back to hiding under the covers , reading books and cartoons!!
And just wondering if this is the home of an ancestor of one of Mel's cats.

Anything i can stuff in my moith knikki when im that lowMorning all
Bit of an up and down evening but on the whole OK, Etch A Sketch said was dead all night, which was a bit of a surprise however waking with a 3.3 ~sigh~ now sat here contemplating taking over the world with a steady 5.4 while listening to Bowie
@karen8967 Think I got as low as 2.5 yesterday, it was one of those hypos where I stare into space or look at my insulin pen trying to work out if I had injected or not meanwhile time moves in its own pace where only quantum mechanics work. Still solved with a Timeout biscuit, works for me.
I think you need to redo that comment @karen8967Anything i can stuff in my moith knikki when im that low
