Hope you get well soon . Thank you for your prayers . Good luck with your move and hope you’ll be happy where your going .I'm so sorry to hear about the magnitude of lovely Ron's illnesses and disabilities. I'm still praying for healing by means of the stripes of Christ. I've been very poorly with a nasty UTI and bad dehydration. I've just arrived back from A and E where I received an IV drip, an injection and was told there's microscopic blood particles in my urine and white blood cells. I've got some antibiotic tablets too. I'm moving to my shared lives specialist supported housing at the end of July. Lots of love from @JohnnyBaker87 sufferer of moderate to severe Asperger Syndrome and Adult ADHD xXx.
Hope you're even healthier, today.I feel a lot better in myself now. Blood sugar was 9.9 this morning.
That's very kind of you to ask, oh I can't bring my BG down still. On protein but one bite of carbs sends it up. Had a home made cheeseburger and bgs were 15.5 an hour after eating. Sending my kind and warm regards back to you. Qxx
You may have to reduce protein and carbs so less for insulin to process. Try for a few days. If your insulin dependant expect to reduce units too.That's very kind of you to ask, oh I can't bring my BG down still. On protein but one bite of carbs sends it up.

There is no easy way to say this. You have to take the 2 or 3 days of discomfort that comes with coming off sugar. Until you stop your weetabix and cornflakes or whatever other processed carbs you take you will never reduce your T2D and or other insulin related symptoms you may suffer. They will only get worse. It is not about moderation, that's a myth. It is about drastic and difficult lifestyle changes, particularly to your eating habits.Dear friends, i have been eating granny smith apples, mandarins and a couple of bananas today as my healthcare assistant at my gp advised me to. Got to get it in moderation more because of all that devil called fructose. I had some weetabix and cornflakes, too, which is a real nono for diabetes. I really want to modify my diet. I have no self control. Ive got a piece of celeriac in my fridge. Im trying to use that instead of potatoes.
Can an x-ray be organised so you can be with him? So they can see how unwell he can get. I used to fear going into hospital but not now. I've gone by taxi to a&e as I felt on deaths door. On admissions I've been in good hands and helped in times of my gp practice being closed or advised by 111 or my gp for a chest x-ray.Rons in a lot of pain. He’s not sleeping . Walking is very painful so he’s resorted to using his power chair more even to get around the garden . Specialist at derby is refusing to see him until Ron can find out what causes his chest infections . Yet every time a chest x Ray is booked he has a relapse and ends up in bed . Some times for hours other times for days . Even if he gets up it can take a week or more to recover , only for it to happen all over again . I can fully understand why he’s so depressed , it would get anyone down. Even if he were to just sit all day his body closes down . On good weather days he will sit in the garden with a coffee , I leave him to his own personal space . He knows he needs help but feels like he’s been chucked on the scrap heap and forgotten about .

The best place for me when very ill was hospital until I was patched up.
Luckily winter gone was an ill-free one. Thanks to flu jab, I guess.
If Ron could brave it to hospital on such days I'd like to think he would be looked after.
Although I know winter months are hectic at any hospital.
When can he have his x-ray now?
I felt that negativity. Just asking a few old trained nurses. They don't acknowledge its huge impact.I’m always with him , but he needs to have them done on the same day he rings up . Unfortunately you have to book appointments and there’s no knowing if it’s going to be a relapse day or not . Hcp don’t understand this . They just think no matter what he can drag himself in even if he’s unconscious. It’s like saying tomorrow I’m going to have a hypo , you just don’t know . He now needs me to be with him all the time as he can hardly walk now . His health over the last two years has gone down hill. He can’t even go to the shops on his own as lifting anything puts him in pain . There’s still a lot of negative feeling to those with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.
I wear sunglasses when my sugars are high, to prevent damage from light in enlarged pupils.We’ve had to recently change the lighting to blue bulbs as he can not tolerate bright lights nor loud noises like music . I’ve also read that people with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue have trouble controlling blood sugars . Which would probably explain why his levels are high .
I'm so sorry to hear about poor Ron's suffering and mistreatment by the hospital. I am praying like crazy for him. My own diabetes management is very poor and is related, I bel
Wow @JohnnyBaker87. What have you eaten today?I'm getting referred back to the diabetes community clinic as hba1c is 8.8%. Blood sugar was 20.4 this morning.
