Ahh....Thank you for the encouragement there andbreathe! I will certainly give it my best and stick with it- and keep you posted too!I'm utterly convinced you will be just fine. The only thing I would say, and it's pure speculation on my part, is to be kind to yourself and your body, and allow your body a coupe of weeks to adjust to it's new regime. I'm guessing there may be a period of "no change", then a tiny increase in scores, just until your body gets used to not having any little helpers onboard. If there's going to be one, your challenge will be during that transition period.
You're a bright, strong resourceful woman, Kimbo, you'll just move on through it.
Brilliant start to your journey Monday! Be proud!Thanks for the encouragement everyone!

Meant to reply to this yesterday. Very parallel stories here, useless Practice Nurse but wonderful hospital DSN and Consultant. Was showered with strips meters, lancets, nice insulin pen pouch and all for nothing. Totally different attitudes.I got myself a free monitor initially but when I ran out of test strips and lancets my GP refused to order them. The practice nurse told me they don't give glucometers out as ' people get too obsessed by them'! In other words, they wanted to save money. I was only given one by the specialist nurse when I started insulin.
The physical exercise must've lowered your bs considerablyHard day just done pre bed check and was 3.7 mmol/l. Bit shaky and have eaten some carbs to get them up. Rollercoaster readings now. Wondering what's going on ?
Yep, 99.9% my dad in all ways- he was 6.4 1/2 ex grenadier and firefighter!
We were at GPS on Monday, now got stronger pain killers more specifically for heads apparently, amitriptyline - also to help with sleep, Monday night was a better night for her but not as good last night somehow. Back end of month to see how it's gone and if not better then referral for ct scan
Good hope you slept well...Hi guys managed to get a bit of sleep this afternoon just waiting for nebulizer to finish and change mask then going to sleep night night all
