well i never got me pump it was more of a discussion to make sure i still wanted it and why i wanted it . the whole process is gonna take up to 12 weeks got to see the dietician to make sure i can still carb count properly...***after looking at the pumps what were on offer i have decided to go for the ypso one as medtronic one was very heavy also i raised concerns about once i got the pump they will stop libre but nurse said if i start finger pricking 8 times a day between now and when i actually get the pump i will meet the criteria again to get libre prescribed again maybe a week or so overlap so that made me happy although not looking forward to it .also when i start on pump it will be straight onto the insulin not a week on saline which to be honest i didnt see the point of anyway.feel a bit deflated now but heyho the end is in sight enjoy the rest of your day everyone
Happy birthday T1Stars! Love, love, love this thread
Hello friends, I woke up a bit high 14.5I'm not surprised after a two day fight with hypos. I'm seeing my consultant tomorrow, so I have stories to tell him and he would probably breathe down my neck. I'm still cleaning up vomit residue and even the wash didn't take the smell out. I hope everyone is doing okay!
I seemed to have picked up a stinking cold, so come on here and see if I can spread around a little.
Well rude not to share
Thank you, does it work on the under side of the sofa?Try washing the floor etc with a strong solution of bicarb. That's the stuff that stops fridges' ponging (pop some in an egg cup). It helps a bit with smells. (Patch test first, just to be on the safe side)
I'll add some vomit if you'll like?I seemed to have picked up a stinking cold, so come on here and see if I can spread around a little.

Thank you Wutwo!Tip the sofa over onto its back so that the bottom is sideways up, and then attack the offensive patch. First with the biological washing powder, hot water and a scrubbing brush, then if there's still any pong left, go with the bicarb.
@Knikki hope you soon feel better. It’s very kind of you to offer to share your cold but no thanks - however if it were cake......I seemed to have picked up a stinking cold, so come on here and see if I can spread around a little.

Ok ok I know am late to the party ... I assume there is a birthday party with a few low carb offerings, some vegan options and a hot toddy for the colds.
Talking of colds, I am wondering if my sore throat may be a precursor to some sniffs. And I have decided @Knikki is to blame.
Hopefully, it will be a quick one because we are off to the South of France tomorrow. It was going to be a staycation but the weather had other ideas so, last night, we decided to leave the country and spend some time in Euroland before we leave and face longer queues at the boarder ... until my Irish Foreign Birth Registration is approved.
Today was a bit of chilling with some holiday planning. I have ironed everything that hadn’t been and tomorrow I will decide what to be packed. As I am not working, my desk is now piled high with non clothing stuff to pack. Toiletries decanted into smaller bottles, diabetes stuff put aside, camera battery charged, kindle charged and filled with unread books, Fitbit charged, ...
