Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 🙂 It's a new week 5.1 for me..

Off for a radioactive bone scan today to show what my fractures are doing. Have to hang around for 3 hours after injection before scan to give bones time to take up radioactivity.
If you see an orange glow in the sky later it isn't another hurricane approaching, it'll be me at the bus stop!🙄😛

Have a good week everyone, I'm hoping my eye surgery isn't cancelled again tomorrow so I'll be back when I can- it night well be tomorrow the way things are but we'll see!🙂

Happy Monday all. Desperately fighting my food addiction today. Fully intended to start SlimFast/SlimFast/HealthyAtkinsEveningMeal until I walked into the kitchen and spied the thin ham and the jar of beetroot. Will I be able to start at my next meal? I just don't know. Had a chat with my sister yesterday, she's been as bad. It's definitely a family thing. Her highest bg after pigging out this week was 10 something, mine was 12 something and we're both suffering from blurry eyes. My other sister on insulin doesn't even address the issue, she's completely in denial but looking most ill and I'm worried in case she has another heart attack possibly while driving to Stoke with Tilly-Rose

I phoned metformin sister, our Daph, today and she told me that insulin sister, our Deb, isn't even taking her insulin! I've told Daph to phone the surgery and dob our Deb in, something's got to be done. She's driving back up the motorway tomorrow with Tilly. 😱

8.0 for me this morning, not bad at all seeing as I'm going to heck in a handcart. My other worry is my meds. I lost the dosette with all this week's tablets in and the aspirin I take daily. Just no idea where I put it. Thought I put it in the yellow kitchen drawers but no, unless they've fallen down the back. I'm taking Beechams because that's aspirin...not feeling great now though. :(

Ditto...not sure what to say...its so difficult to comment on family affairs...worrying your sister is not taking her insulin...particularly when driving...possibly the three of you need to get together and have a thorough...honest discussion on all of this...three sisters...amazing what support you'd be able to offer one another...worth a try?...if you can't find those pills...get them replaced as soon as you can.

Oh dear...two new tyres for a performance vehicle like yours will put a dent in the old bank-balance Bubbsie. I had one of my bikes serviced last week and the new tyres for that cost a pretty penny.

I'm wide awake and scoring 4.1 this lovely autumn morning. Fingers crossed that all goes well for everyone today...especially you Flower. I'll be thinking of you. 🙂
 
Good morning. 5.3 today.

You're right MBT...but...have to bite the bullet...better safe than sorry...with the amount of driving I have to commit to...a necessity...just done the grocery shop online...I was very careful...very careful indeed...echo your sentiment to Flower...they need to get that surgery done...you have a good day.
 
My levels were wonderful yesterday but this morning 14.4 with mid ketones. No idea why.
Thinking of you today Flower xx
 
Good luck flower

Good morning all, had a little work out this morning when the fire alarm went off in the building at 7.05 and had a nice long walk down the fire escape from the 9th floor only to find it was a false alarm! Anyway, its a 7.4 for me today. Fingers crossed for you today Flower. X
