@ziggy weather same here not deep snow just a light covering but I won't be making snow balls anytime soon! Thank you for your good wishes,also hope all who aren't well feel better soon! KGood morning all. It has snowed all day yesterday and through the night. Everything is now covered in snow and wonderful to look at. However, I am still happy I don't have to go out today.
Seems a lot of us are now down with the cold. Hope everyone is feeling better soon, @dogslife, @HelenHak, @Granny_grump_, @Goacher55 and others (I apologize if I left someone out).
Blood sugars this morning were 5.1.
Have a great weekend all.
@Freema but your off the metformin and that's quite an achievement and further down the line your levels could drop,but still not high but I do understand your concern you like them lower, but well done to you! K6.3 at 10:30 seems to be my level without metformin very much space for progress![]()

are you having enough carbs rie26 or if your on insulin does it need adjustingGood morningI hope you're all well. 4.5 this morning. Had another hypo of 2.8 last night at work...lowest it's ever been. Felt very dizzy but had my orange & carbs and felt fine 20 mins later. Can having a long day (was out 16 hours) and feeling tired cause a hypo?
I'm on gliclazide which seems to be super powerful! Lol. I have 20mg 4 days a week (didn't even have it yesterday when I had a hypo). I knew I was out all day so had x2 wholemeal toast for breakfast and lunch I even made sure to have a jacket potato. I had a few snacks with carbs too. I had a feeling it was going to go low as I was super tired a while beforehand which i take as a sign it's coming....when I knew that I even had a snack. I think yesterday was just a really long day. Thankfully I don't seem to have anymore than 1-2 hypos a week.are you having enough carbs rie26 or if your on insulin does it need adjusting![]()
Hello Rie26. Sorry you are having hypos. Is it worth ringing your GP surgery for advice in case your Gliclazide dose needs adjusting?I'm on gliclazide which seems to be super powerful! Lol.

Hi @Freema I definitely don't agree you have a strong character or you would not have achieved so much,we all have our weaknesses and give in to things but if it's only a treat occasionally then why not we all have to work **** hard to keep on track it's allowed I'm sure. But don't beat yourself up your doing marvellously and your not on your own in all of this,I've met some lovely people on here helpful caring people we are all here for you! Kthank you dear... well my character is a bit weak... I wish I would find it much more tempting to go under 100 grams of carb a day
@Granny_grump_ On the Amazon site they have a good choice of shapes and sizes of electric pads including one for knees.Last winter I bought my hubby a chargeable battery one for back pain.He finds it really good because he can walk around, and it helps a lot.
