Hello 🙂 🙂

Sorry haven't been on for a while. We were away in Guernsey for the last week of August, and then rushing around trying to get stuff ready for back to school - I've had a quick look at the forum a couple of times but there have been so many messages I'll never get round to looking at all of them. Hope everybody is well and enjoying life 🙂
 
Hope you had a good holi Redkite. You get a gold star for responding ! 😉

Ah, lovely to hear from you! I had a lovely holiday in Guernsey when I was 10 🙂

Hope the back to school business has gone smoothly!
 
Hi everyone

Hope your all keeping well and hopefully catch up with you all soon.

Hey Andy, good to hear from you 🙂 Any luck getting a new job? Best wishes my friend 🙂
 
Good to hear from you Andy. 🙂
 
Hi there, Andy.🙂
 
It's good to hear from you Andy. I hope things improve for you very soon. Don't be a stranger.
 
I haven't been on here for a little while. Had a strange few weeks where things have gotten me down. Always testing but not writing anything down and eating a bit more carbs and covering with insulin than i did for months, previously was having 100g carbs per day and then went up to double that at weekends if i fancied chocolate. Eaten more choc when i have been feeling low. I think its not being back to work, not fit enough and my half pay will go to nil pay October and so i am pressuring myself to go back to the workplace even though i am not ready as not fit enough. I've had treatment for shoulder pain and back trouble. I went for physio tonight it cat £30 and i even thought i may not go thinking about the money. I must buck up. I worry what will happen if i don't go back to work where ihave worked for 15 years.
 
Is anybody there ! Taking the "P" No prob Laura I worked in Cardiff for a few month. Full of friendly nice people 🙂
 
It's been a long time...I know

Good Afternoon

I hope you all are doing ok. Since I was last on here I had two jobs. The last one ended this April. Going through a rough patch at the moment as I had to go back to 2X2 Metformin Tablets a day, and had to get my antis (Venlaflaxine) increased also. Struggling with bills etc, luckily family members are helping me out. Take care

Hey Roy, good to hear from you, but sorry to hear you have been struggling. I hope that you can find another job soon and ease the pressures a bit - good that you have family to help 🙂
 
Hi, Have been missing for quite a while - well, not really missing cos I know where I am. Diabetes OKish but my last HBa1C was 61 so I've now been on Metformin for 3 days.
 
Hi folks, I am not really MIA, but I havent been around for a couple of weeks. I am struggling with dialysis at the moment. They seemed to have got on top of the neuropathy pain which dialysis seems to kick off. But the yesterday after it I was in terrible pain all night and couldnt sleep all night. Plus my bp has gone so low I am having trouble standing up and it crashed on dialysis yesterday and I fainted sitting down. It was quite scarey, I am hoping to see my dr next time if possible. I am not aneamic anymore , so if I could stand up I would be quite lively 😱 I am sure we will get on top of all this and I will feel much better. On a happy note I am now officially on the kidney/pancreas tx list, my case is packed and I am ready to go, I hope you lot are all ok and I am going to try and catch up a bit more frequently....Tintin
 
Good to hear from you TinTin. I hope that they can get the fainting sorted out and that you get your transplant soon xx
 
Hey all,

Sorry for quiet period I swear a month goes by as quickly as a week right now - my little one is already 6 months old - how did that happen?
I'm doing ok, struggling with losing the baby weight and my blood sugars are mixed to say the least but finally have my hospital referral (needed to change as I moved house), so hopefully they'll give me a kick up the backside.

Anyway, hope you are all good 🙂
