Morning all,
A 5.9 this morning...
Tried my hand at baking yesterday, someone gave me a recipe for ANZAC biscuits. The test batch was a little overbaked (sounding very Paul Hollywood) so I adjusted the timings and the rest came out ok!
Have to ration myself to them though...

Blessings Snowwy

Morning all. 7.6 for me this morning with a flat line overnight
Last afternoon at forest school for a while today. Brrrrr..think its going to be a cold one.
Have a good day everyone
 
Hi all from my bed in the Cumberland Infirmary. 6.1 today. Ended up in A&E last night, had terrible abdominal and lower back pains. Started after my short walk to Aldi, back was aching and I suspected I’d overloaded my rucksack. Long story short after tea, cottage pie, I was in agony, didn’t know what to do with myself. Thought I was dying. Mr Eggy whipped me straight to hospital where I vomited in triage! Oops! Put on drip of morphine and had CT scan. Bowel obstruction! I was not expecting that, but hey it’s 2020, they suspect it’s caused by scar tissue after my ops. So nil by mouth for the next day or two, I’m getting an insulin pump! Well whilst I’m here. I’ve a cannula in my right arm hydrating me and for antibiotics and they have tried twice to fit a cannula in my right arm for the pump, they’re sending someone who knows what they’re doing. Docs words! Also have a tube up my nose into my stomach to drain it. It may mean an op if it doesn’t settle. Just twinges this morning. Fingers and toes crossed please everyone for a no op option. Have a better day than me everyone. 🙂

Sorry to hear this hope you get sorted soon, and on the road to recovery.
 
Eek, @eggyg. This is a pre-Christmas diet too far! Seriously, I hope it settles and you don’t need the op, and that everything is back to normal quickly.
6.2 for me this morning, one too many jelly babies at 1am, possibly.
 
Oh @eggyg poor you. Sending big (((hugs))). Is that what you have to do these days to get a pump, LOL? Seriously tho, hope you’re home and recovered ASAP.

Morning all. 🙂 7.9 here - it must be high because I watched Bake Off! Those cakes had me drooling...I’ve never been hooked on a show like that before. 2020 is definitely a strange year!o_Oo_O
 
Oh @eggyg sorry to hear...
Get well soon but don't get a bigger rucksack! x
 
Blooming Heck @eggyg!!!! That sounds traumatic and scary! Thinking of you and sending positive thoughts for blockage to clear without intervention. Please keep us posted when you can. Lots of love and ((((hugs)))) but obviously gentle ones!
 
3.4 for me today I'm afraid. Went to bed on 10.1 and then a steady drift down to the red line after that. No basal or bolus insulin since yesterday morning but lots of exercise and more to come today so cut basal back by one unit this morning and I have had breakfast on the house (no bolus). Even my usual foot on the floor hasn't kicked in yet and I have been up nearly an hour! What is going on!

@khskel Good to see you getting an House Special this morning. Congrats!
 
Thanks everyone for your best wishes. Consultant just been. It definitely is scarring from my ops, apparently my small bowel has ensconced itself where the pancreas and spleen was and surrounded by scar tissue and it’s movement is restricted. Doesn’t want to operate as that will cause more scar tissue. Viscious circle he said. Two days on a drip, nil by mouth today and I can drink water tomorrow! Woo hoo! If it happens again I’ve to do the same at home, just sip water for two days to rest the bowel. Cottage pie off the menu me thinks! Never had it very much anyways so no miss really but I do confess eating ever again isn’t filling me with glee at the moment!
