the meals are very meat/ stew based and on top of it I've picked up a cold.... bloods last night @23 have upped back ground insulin my 25% but can't seem to get in top if it & feel rotten. can anyone give any cold advice feedback please? I am not taking any sugar based cough medicine, only cold and flu tablets but the high bloods 're stopping me sleeping and enjoying our break.
Oh no! I’m sorry your holiday isn’t going smoothly. I’d tag team paracetamol and ibuprofen, tbh. Correct when you can and keep plenty of glucose handy in case you suddenly crash. I’m having similar issues myself, only combined with work rather than a holiday! Feel better soon, and welcome to the thread xHi all
Hope you're all well?
I am on hols at the min in Krakow but struggling with the low carb here
This is the first proper cold I've has since switching to carb count- the Libre which I've had since Dec has brought to light an early am (2/3am) rise tendency we weren't aware of and my partner keeps telling me I'm chasing numbers now.....
Taken 7yrs to get a hol and now feels pretty poop
I will try and speak to my specialist team also when they are in the office.
Sorry for they essay! Thanks for reading x
Thanks Mel - I think frustrated and disappointed covers it
got some local flu tablets which are making me feel a bit more human. like I haven't always envied how well he sleeps anyway 
@champ200581 hi and welcome or if you're in Krakow,Thanks Mel - I think frustrated and disappointed covers it
Just typical isn't it?! Honestly I'm ashamed of the reads, and trying to explain to a non diabetic on how tired and ****** you feel
Thanks for making me welcome, just found the emojis too
Good day all x
anyway have pushed it back up which will take a few days to work through the system..
Oh, I don't think they're bothered about getting jobs or anything...
WOW, love the new avatar @Knikki@champ200581 Hello and welcome to the strange end of the forum. Krakow? not been there for a while and yep I can believe you will struggle with low carb stuff, still a fab place.
Cant help on the cold feeling yuk bit other than what the others have said.
Morning.
Woke to an 11.5 ~sigh~ not sure why but have been experimenting with lowing my long acting Dulac and I think that might be the cause
Sat here staring at two screens full of various things and still no idea what I'm doing
Lets see if the tech can get me to come out with more colourful descriptive language
@karen8967 How the new job going our kid?
@Mel dCP you should be made a saint or given a title at least. Hate kids with a vengeance, they are so unkind.FML. Just had the worst class I've had in a long while. Year nine, so 13. A couple of the boys made a point of being as disruptive and irritiating as possible, to the point of instigating the entire class to clap continuously for as long as possible. Then hammering on the desks. Then whistling. They just don't give a carp. Had to get senior management up and they still didn't care. Ugh. I'm sure my day will get much worse after lunch as I'm down to cover PE
Thanks for the lovely messages, all
@helensaramay - no, its all very English here! we're right by the Severn Bridge.
@WuTwo - I have a very full array of vaccinantions due to my First Responder volunteering, but even that doesnt cover everything! Good to know I'm covered for most serious horrors though.
Madame finally into range at 6.3, its taken far more magic juice than usual. Definitely going down with something, as I'm feeling quite "churn-y" in the lower abdominal area and quite nauseous. Nothing to do with the classes, its not nerves or stress or anything like that. Felt like it before I left home this morning.
Is it bedtime?
They don't. Probably for the best as I'm pretending to be a Physics teacher tomorrow...Mel I don't think they do a big enough bottle of wine
My numbers were a bit high all day yesterday for some reason, correction dosages just didn't do much - today a bit better but not the 5's and 6's I'm aiming for - saying that the lunch time correction will probably see me in the 3's before I leave work now!
