[QUOTE="LooperCat, post: 2147140, member: 468055"] I will be changing my avatar shortly too, as I use this current one on my Facebook account sometimes. The green circle is the Loop logo. [ATTACH=full]36032[/ATTACH] In other news, Libre sensor failed at just five days in, although my MiaoMiao/Spike rig is still reading it. Sadly the calibration seems to have drifted and I woke on an indicated 4.6 - tested as I felt wobbly and it came back as a 2.8 :banghead: Hey ho, all part of D-life! Three dextrose tabs and a cheeky peanut butter sandwich (see, I am human after all) for which I’ve now insulinated, and all is good. Back to rehearsing for my practical exams in a couple of weeks. I’ve borrowed a resuscitation doll and the ventilation gear so can practice to my heart’s content at home. There’s certain things we have to make sure we not only do, but verbalise, so I’ve written a sort of script to run through. Complete with laminated picture of a defibrillator and a selection of ECG rhythms to interpret. I’ve also got to practice my “secondary survey” skills but need an unconscious body for that - husband is willing to let me practice on him but seems to find it hard to remain professional ;) I only have to wave my stethoscope at him and he gets that glint in his eye :rolleyes: Flattering but not helpful :D Bit of a post hypo headache now, so will chuck some nurofen down my neck and crack on, much as I’d like to wallow on the sofa with my book. Catch you later x [/QUOTE]
