Had the same feeling back in october it was cystitis hope you dont have that!! Get well soon:)
 
A solid 4.0 for me this morning. This followed an odd, and rather low day yesterday. I have no idea what I was mid-afternoon, as I strolled around M&S feeling decidedly off and low. I didn't have my kit with me, but as I felt off, I toddled off and had a café latte, which buoyed me up just fine.

Yesterday evening, I had a pretty much tried and tested evening meal, followed by berries and cream. I had my usual scores pre and post meal, but was 3.2 and 3.0 a couple of hours later. (What’s all that nonsense about!?) I had only tested because of feeling off in the afternoon. Anyway, as I felt absolutely fine, I gave that a decent ignoring, went to bed, and got up on 4.0 this morning. I think my liver may be on message these days.

Hopefully, normal service has been resumed.

It’s a horrid, blustery day here today. I may just pull up the metaphoric draw-bridge and stay indoors all day. Play nicely boys and girls.
 
7.7 this morning... Had a lovely lie in as its my 3yr old nephews party today and I am helping my sister look after 25 kids......so I need all the energy I can get.

Have a great day
 
Dull and boring 5.2 like the rain and very very windy....the weather that is windy not me!
 
5.5 this morning. No idea how or what I was after dinner last night as I ate so late and had a snack to take the tablet I forgot to take with dinner!
 
I've just been officially diagnosed on the 23 Dec 2014

Got the first bloods from the doc on 20th dec and got my meter yesterday (accu-check nano)

Here's my readings so far:

20/12/14. 19 (doctors)
23/12/14. 16 (doctors)
9/1/15 10.8 (pre meal)
9/1/15. 11.2 (post meal)
10/1/15. 10.5 (pre meal)

So going the right way
 
7.2 mmol/l. Must have been the oh so yummy biccies I had last night after my 3.7. Oh fond memories of Tunnocks tea cakes awww

Jan, I'd rather be a bit high than too low. Humulin M3 insulin has a rapid and long lasting insulin mixed together so levels can drop even further whilst sleeping and didn't want less than 3 mmol/l.
 
Great Xmas present eh? Worry not you're in the right place. Read the website and join the forums where the the theory is put into practice. Welcome to the thread/madhouse - great friendly bunch with tried and tested advice. Any questions ask away. If you're on meds let us know cos it can make a difference to the replies
 
My doctors surgery does a first call first served system on the day. Some appointments are pre booked but gone are the days of waiting days/weeks to see a GP. If you phone after 8.30 am you will be seen that day.
