You are welcome. I'm waiting for details of my full blood count before blundering on with P E and supplements. I left the reservation big time yesterday but who weighs 100 gms trifle at the table? My sleep score and resting pulse love the firebreak, interesting. Thinking of you and prayijg for you @Ryhia

I hope your results reflect your sacrifices and am in agreement about the trifle. I’d like to think those young penalty takers went to bed after a bowl of trifle.

Hope you continue to post, we are with you in this so sending hugs and positive thoughts. I've found it can feel an absolute age for bloods to get back on track when something has skewed them.

Are you seeing higher bloods throughout the day or just FBGs?

Could it be covid rearing its head again?

Thanks so much Ryhia. It is often higher in the day if I dont eat carefully and sparsely. Dont know if Covid effect but that was last Oct. I am putting off my A1c and asking for a C Peptide as I have Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency.
All your support matters a lot, thanks.

Thank you Ian, Prayers are good. Going AWOL for a meal seems to have been beneficial to you, although cold custard in any combination wouldn't be a temptation for me. Keep well and don't stray too far there are lots of dangers out there in the wild.;)

Had to look up what EPI was - Hugs to you. I don't know, its bad enough trying to manage D without other issues pulling in other directions. I just want an easy life me! Hope you a C Peptide test gives you more information.

I really did weigh the trifle at the table - took out 2 gms to be spot on 100. Treat for Julie and 91 yo MIL who had TIA Weds/Thurs. My HbA1c was so so (in my sig). Top line cholesterol ok @4 but I need full lipids and bloods to track any damage. The supplements are designed to offset my deficient diet. On line abuse of those poor young men is a damming indictment of England 2021. Major hug for EPI - just googled that one.

Sorry to note your MILs TIA, hope she is recovering ok.
 
4.2 this morning at 6AM. Have not reported in a while, but it was plainly out of superstition... clearly it was exactly that - "a superstition" - given how the match turned out last night :(

Hope everyone has a better day today.
