Thanks. Well I’ll live to fight another day (without chemo) for now! It was quite a rush however and I got back 5 mins before my son.

Phew! So pleased to hear this Amigo ~ I guess your stress levels have reduced slightly by now. Glad your appt is over & done with. A small glass of wine ~ or a piece of this (if you dare!) to celebrate?🙄

Afternoon all🙂
Pleased to say at 05.35am I had a reading of 6.1 Very happy with this.
Had a bowl of porridge 😛 then re-tested on my right pinky 1hr later at 06.36am and bg was 6.4. How amazing is this?!:D
Tested again at 14.12hrs and up popped a 6.6🙂 Seems my bgs are being very well behaved today thanks to our DF staying away from my front door today!😛
Seems @Northerner still has her well & truly buried in a deep hole in his garden without any hope of digging herself out of there!!🙂

Have just tested my pre-meal bg........so I'm logging yet another amazing result of 4.5:D I sure am having a really good day of respectable bgs for a change:D

Good to see you getting such good results after your recent difficulties @wirralass - I hope they continue 🙂 I don't think the DF has thawed out yet, although perhaps I shouldn't have put her in the freezer... 😱 😉
 
Good Morning All

Yesterday was glorious sunshine 24C at lunchtime. Half hour walk to top up my tan. By Mid afternoon it was 27C. At 7 am this tree was bare, at 3 pm these had appeared. It happens so quickly. Weeping Willows now starting to bud and I love those trees.
No Magnolia as yet

Codefree say 5.7
At 4.23 am

Have a fabulous day everyone.

Thank you Northerner ~ amongst other things ie stress, anxiety ~ it just goes to show that illness does have an adverse effect on our bgls ~ and similarly when taking antibiotics. My bgs were all over the ruddy place with this last infection and scared the wits out of me.

Yesterday I tested 4.6 pre meal at 17.26hrs
3hrs post prandial bg was 6.6. A rise of 2.1. Happy with this🙂
Hopefully this is the start of getting my bgls back on track.

11.3 this morning. A depressing start! I’m shaking my head. It was 5.3 before dinner last night at 20:00. I even injected 15 mins. before I ate. I fell asleep before checking my sugars.

I have a borderline slightly underactive thyroid that I have regular blood tests, every 6 weeks, to keep an eye on but, as yet, no medication for. It can make me really tired after eating & I struggle to stay awake to test.

That’s why I think, my sugars are high this morning? I can feel some of last night’s dinner still in my stomach this morning. The last time that happened 06/03/18 my pre dinner sugars were 5.1 I felt sleeply more or less sraight after eating & fell asleep about 40 minutes later? I woke the next morning with sugars of 10.3 & still felt food in my stomach.

The last thing I want right now is breakfast. I dread to think what my after breakfast reading will be when I do eat. I’ll have to check sugars again before I eat & add a correction dose if neccesary. The hospital team gave me a leaflet with a table of correction doses based on pre meal readings. Starting with +2 at 13.0 etc. Sigh, always rise in the morning even if I don’t eat.
 
7.1 for me this morning. Have a good day all
 
Morning all! Well, a test immediately after waking was 7.1! 10 mins later after getting up & going downstairs, 5.2! I'll take that house special.🙂

Take that as a Congratulations Mark
 
Good morning peeps 🙂
Nice looking day here although a tad chilly! I've woken feeling a bit down today so all I want to do is curl up and hide under a duvet :(
5.4 for me this morning
Hope you all have a great day! xx
 
Kaylz, it's blowing up a storm here. Wind and rain at the Causeway Coast Northern Ireland. But, I don't mind it really. It's the Emerald Isle because it's green, & beautiful, because it rains! Yay ho! Have to wrap up warm to pick up my prescription today.
Oh, just avoided a correction dose at 12.6 before breakfast. Injected 30 minutes before to give it a good chance to get working.
