Good Morning, my good, fine friends on the
www.diabetes.co.uk Type 2 Life part of the Forum,
I haven't been one hundred per cent in the last few days although I have shaken off my urinary tract infection for which I completed the course of antibiotics. I now have a mouthful of very sore, pervasive mouth ulcers which cause me great discomfort, pain even, when eating and masticating my food. A close Christian friend ran me to the King's College Dental Hospital in his motor car and the dentist said, upon examination, there were a lot of bitemarks and very traumatic burns on the insides of my cheeks, from the first part of this observation meant I was biting my cheeks in my sleep and the second part of this evaluation was eating scalding hot food and not giving it sufficient chance to "stand" or to "cool down". I can only put this down to the sensory sensitivity in my Asperger Syndrome, a condition that although does describe some of the nice, caring attributes that people say I have but also causes me immense suffering. The Dentist at the King's College Dental Hospital wrote a letter to my GP describing my predicament with my teeth and gums and made a request to her to refer me for special care dentistry in the form of a full scale assessment and treatment procedure at this hospital.
My fasting blood glucose reading this morning, today, Friday 2nd December, 2016, at 8:33 Ante Meridian was 7.0 Millimoles Per Litres, after drinking a cup of coffee with 1 x 5 ml spoonful of Sainsbury's Rich Roast Coffee Granules, a dash of milk and 3 Sainsbury's Artificial Sweetener tablets.
Have a lovely day, my friends.
Love from Johnny Baker (
