Woke up to a BG of 5.9 mmol/L. Immediately went out for a brisk 2km run. Had it down to 5.1 mmol/L on return.

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.

Being told “Oh go on, one won’t hurt you!”.
Conversely, the food police.

Some years ago, out of the blue, I experienced a few episodes of acid reflux, as soon as I lay down in bed for the night. This caused a burning sensation in my throat and was sometimes accompanied by mild chest pain beneath the breastbone. Sometimes, I also noticed a sour taste in my mouth. These symptoms were relieved quite quickly by sitting upright.

While occasional acid reflux usually isn’t something to be concerned about, having these symptoms three or more times a week could be a sign of a more serious condition called gastroesophageal reflux disease [GORD or GERD] and I'd seek medical advice.
