Ooh enjoy, I saw a Flamenco fusion dancer in Seville a few years ago it was amazing :D
 
Good morning 🙂 4.7 here. I went hypo in the night just to test out the powers of my new pump and it did the right thing thank goodness. New pump hypo tally in 12 hours =2 🙄

Enjoy your Spanish culture Bloden, it sounds amazing 🙂

KookyC I hope you have a less stressful day and get some help somehow, somewhere soon to change from Lantus.
 
Thanks Northerner 🙂 , it has a new array of alarm sounds and also a flashing light when it is alarming, so much more pleasing at 3 am 😉
 
Good morning 10.2 for me after a 5am 2.8
 
Thank you Alan. It has knocked me out a bit🙂

Ooo, can you change the ring tone like on a mobile - that song "how low can you go?" springs to mind.🙄

I hope I don't get the giggles like last time I saw some flamenco (it's all so seeerious).😉
 
Hi, I've not posted on this thread since 03/03/2015. If you read through my posts and threads I'm going through a diabetic burnout. Last night and this morning was the first time in ages that I've actually done a bedtime then a waking test. Bedtime tests are really hard for me to do because I have my tea 7pm ish then by 9pm ish I'm sat watching tv and munching crisps also not doing a bolus which I know I should do plus at 9pm ish it means that I can't do my bedtime test until around 1am/2am ish which is very late.

Anyway here goes with
Waking - 4.2 - 0855am
Bedtime - 13.4 - 2352pm
Teatime - 15.1 - 1929 - bolused after tea at 1942pm but forgot to do my 3/3.5 correction dose which my meter advised.

It looks to me like it was a good job you didn't add that correction in Gill - you were already below your starting level with probably a little bit of the teatime insulin still on board, and clearly then dropped significantly before waking. Imagine what you might have woken to if you'd had another 3.5 units? I'm reluctant to say it after all the problems you have had, but it does look as though you might have to check your basal insulin if it's dropping you so much in the night.
 
Morning 4.7 again today....looks like the Lantus is on to me 😱
 
10.2 for me but it was after a very good nigh of champagne cocktails and tapas😱:D
 
Thanks Alan, it was definitely worth it 🙂
 
Good morning 🙂 4.2 for me today.

That sounds a great combination for a good night Amanda, I had ginger beer and a digestive biscuit 😉
 
Morning all. 🙂 A whopping 14.9 for me!😛 I blame the flamenco last night - WOW! is all I can say. If you ever get the chance to see Sara Baras...😛
 
Lol Flower a digestive and ginger beer sounds good🙂 Bloden I'm really pleased that you enjoyed the Flamenco🙂
 
'A High 5' to everyone this morning....5.6 to be exact which is the lowest morning level I've achieved thus far! 🙂

I didn't have any lovely champagne but the vodka clearly has an effect (good for the BG levels but not so good for the liver 😱) but we all need a treat.
