You not having your morning tun then Pavlos
Seriously tho hope the torrents quickly subside and your home stays safely above the water level
You not having your morning tun then PavlosI guess you are never too old to live a new experience.
After trying for an hour to find a route to get to work I just gave up and returned home.
Our roads have turned to rivers and there are stalled cars everywhere.

You can see the bonnet of my car bottom left of this picture. I drive quite a tall SUV!

The black Mercedes C class in this photo was actually floating on the water. It could be seen moving up and down like s boat on the waves or a piece of driftwood.
I think I will stay warm and dry at home for a while and try again this afternoon.
We don't often do rain in Cyprus but when we do....
Pavlos.
PS two hours post breakfast of frozen raspberries blueberries and Greek yoghurt 5,6 mmol
Frozen Shoulder is a right nightmare... I first had it in my left shoulder - 4 years later I was lucky enough to get it in my right shoulder. It took about 13months before the pain went and now I am up to 21 months - no pain but still almost no movement in the arm - its a nightmare getting dressed. as usual Dr says that having diabetes, means we're more susceptible to this lolHad the same thing Frozen Shoulder abt 7/8 years ago regrettably it did take 2/3 years to fully free up but the pain decreased rather rapidly to a dull ache, hope you recover quicker
Hope the shoulder eases today

Good luck Diana.
I had another half slice fried bread tonight, no chocolate, just some sore fingers!
Thank you @Bluetit1802
It went okay. I asked for a copy of the ultrasound report and was given it.
I was also told that my liver function which has been slightly raised for several years has now returned to NORMAL!!
Excerpts from the ultrasound report read:
History: Prolonged and mild abnormal LFTs. Known RA. Recently commenced Metformin.
The gallbladder is small, contracted and probably fibrosed around numerous shadowing tiny calculi. There is no bile duct dilation and no local abnormality of the liver has been demonstrated. There is uniform increased reflectivity throughout the liver in keeping with fatty infiltration.
Normal antegrade flow is present in the portal vein, with normal respiratory variation. There is also normal biphasic flow in the hepatic eins. The pancreas, spleen and both kidneys are normal in appearance. The aorta is normal in calibre and no intra-abdominal lymphadenopathy has been demonstrated.
That's the good news.... and confirmation that it is the non-alcholic fatty liver condition
I asked my GP what could have caused it and he said insulin resistance and I asked how it could be treated. He said increased exercise....When I said I already walked daily and worked out with a personal trainer, so could I try Forxiga he asked me to spell it, saying he'd never heard of it! He then said he was reluctant to prescribe any weight loss drugs (***??) and he would have to consult with his colleagues and speak with a dietician. That's when I knew I'd lost the battle. He also said my LCHF diet won't help the fatty liver and I should go low fat..........
Otherwise its been a good start to the day.............and its somewhat comforting to know I've had an MOT of my internal organs
Thank you for your support and good wishes
5.2 at bedtime (bang on normal) I believe some people (type 1's) usually wipe away the first blob and squeeze again. I have seen comments about this on other threads. Could be @noblehead.
What batch were those strips from Blue? (I don't have any issue with what I'm currently using, just interested. I know you may have posted this already.......... Sorry.)
Apologies as I've not read the thread leading up to your post Bluetit, but some people do wipe away the first blood sample, I do this if my hands haven't been washed thoroughly before testing, squeezing the finger too hard to obtain blood releases other fluids (I believe) which can intervere with bg results, I've read it on here and seen it mentioned in books (could have been Think like a Pancreas), @phoenix will no doubt give a full explanation.
There was a paper that looked into first or second drop.Apologies as I've not read the thread leading up to your post Bluetit, but some people do wipe away the first blood sample, I do this if my hands haven't been washed thoroughly before testing, squeezing the finger too hard to obtain blood releases other fluids (I believe) which can intervere with bg results, I've read it on here and seen it mentioned in books (could have been Think like a Pancreas), @phoenix will no doubt give a full explanation.
Watch it again, the fear may then go away..... Hope the pain subsides soon then you can get some decent sleep.thanks- yes I gather it's a slow thing. It's like the worst migraine and toothache put together. It's finding somewhere to get comfortable in bed - I'd stick my arm straight out if I could but it's too cold and I'm scared of sharks under the bed( don't ask!!! blame my Dad for taking me to see Jaws as a small kid)
