What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

Ouchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Aginoth...good luck with your assessment...couldn't they give you a bit of leeway with that in view of your surgery yesterday
 
thanks bubbsie gonna give it a couple of more days then il phone again had gp appointment yesterday she reckons might have an ear infection going on so has given me a spray it probably has been the head cold and a few little bugs over the past couple of weeks (this is week 3 now )see how it goes its just so frustrating but apart from that everything fine not in work as there has been an outbreak of v+d so keeping well away gp also advised same thing
 
6.4 this morning. It's rare that I will wake at less than 5.5 really. I can see through my readings that it rises just as I'm about to wake up. On the plus side, I have been in range (4-8.5) for a number of days now.

Hi @JoeT1 you seem to be going in the right direction but has I'm type2 I wouldn't really like to advise but your post will be picked up by another type 1 and they should be able to give you better answers to any concerns you have! Good luck !K
 
good luck with your assessment and big hugs for the op

joe thats a good waking number fora type 1 i hope it continues for you
 
Fingers crossed it is the head cold + the possible ear infection...if he's given you a spray sounds like an outer ear infection...had that it is incredibly painful...if he's caught it early hopefully it won't get too bad...you must be relieved you've seen the GP...certainly better than a random conversation in a phone call saying honeymoon period is over...one of my pet hates when we're fobbed by one of our health care team with 'oh it's probably (this)'...it is frustrating Karen...seem to be viruses everywhere...just seen my poor neighbour...she is not well...she's lovely...but keeping away from her...fingers crossed it's reached it's peak & things settle down soon.
 
thanks bubbs and yes stay away from the neighbour

Next appointment was a month away. Slight upside having had surgery yesterday I certainly will look the part at the assessment.

I went with a friend to her PIP assessment for moral support...hated every minute of it...doubt anyone is meant to enjoy them...however I found it such an unwelcoming almost hostile environment...hers was conducted by am ambulance technician...some of the questions were so ambiguous...no idea if they're all like that...but...have to say it was an experience I wouldn't care to repeat...yes...you certainly will look the part...hope that leg/foot is not too painful.
