Thanks @Bloden I'm still getting used to it so not sure what is good and what is bad yet , I'm back at the Dr's on Monday to have my bloods tested again (got to be meat free all week-end )
 
Morning yawning. Yet another very restless night, it’s not my usual insomnia where my brain is whirring but just a general restlessness. A 7.6! Does a Kit Kat in bed whilst reading your book lead to a higher morning BG? Asking for a friend! 😉 Not much on today, everyday is a weekend when you’re retired. Have a good one. 🙂
 
Morning all and a House Special for me.

Excitement for the day is a trip to the pharmacy to pick a prescription up. Never mind rock n rolling a gain in a couple of weeks.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning Folks
Reporting a reading of 8.8 for this morning

Off on a bike ride shortly and the weather is good so looking forward to it
 
5.3 this morning. 🙂 Very icy out!! :( Weather station says feels like -3C. 😱
I ain't going anywhere yet!!
Keep warm every body.

5.1 this morning and I'm feeling great. :DI had been really stressed out the last few days waiting for the test results of my recent colonoscopy. :(
The good news yesterday was "all biopsies benign". The worst part of it was taking the horrible laxative. 😱
Still I can look forward to another chance to sample it in a few months when I have to do it all over again. 🙄

Have a safe day, everybody.

That is good news.
 
6.9 which is quite a low morning reading for me still. Down from 10 before bed, (I seem to either stay stable or I have a mild hypo overnight so what appears to be a steady drop is also unusual ,but dinner was a bit later last night.

Work day for me today... 12 th in a row... Day off tomorrow though...
 
Good morning 7.6 on a sunny day a bit cooler today 14.C, couldn`t get online yesterday electric sub station decided to give up with a big bang.🙄 No point staying in as I`m all electric so waddled off to the club for the day,:D I see quite a few are still struggling so {{{HUGS}}} to you all.🙂

Great result Dez.🙂

Congratulations on HS @khskel, I may see you at the pharmacy.😎🙂

Have a good day folks stay warm & safe.🙂
 
Well my run/walk down to the GPs to pick up medication seems to have helped my levels quite dramatically as I woke to a 3.5. Rather than treat it and then inject bolus once I had come up above 4 and then have to wait an hour plus for the NR to work before I could eat breakfast, I decided to be brave and jab my NR and Levemir (both doses reduced by 1 unit) and then have breakfast straightaway and it worked pretty well. I only went up to 8 but unfortunately I'm still there, so need to do some exercise to bring it down. I have arranged to deliver a couple of tons of horse manure via wheelbarrow to a neighbour this afternoon, so that should do it! Will probably have long arms and a sore back by the end of the day!

@khskel Congrats on your HS. Isn't that your second this year so far?? Wonder if you are lining up to give Hazel some competition for the HS king or queen title along with @Northerner? We should have a spread sheet to keep tabs on everyone so that we can see who gets the most in a year and award a trophy!
 
Evening all. 7.3 @ 6.17am. Stay cosy all, white out this morning, but a gorgeous day after, blue sky. Lighter nights now too. It's all on the up... 🙂

Morning everyone to anyone who remembers me. I’m making a rare visit having not been on here for quite some time but have kept up to date on everyone’s progress and trials and tribulations as I’ve circumnavigated my own.

I’m now undergoing my treatment for leukaemia and doing well though the side effects are brutal on my already battered joints. Sadly I must be on the only cancer treatment that ‘assists’ you to gain weight! 🙄 However my last Hba1c was 38 with no meds so did well over a difficult period. I know I’m slipping now so I’m back reading posts in an attempt to slap myself around a bit and take control of the carbs. Exercise is more difficult at the moment not aided by managing to throw myself down the stairs just before Christmas and break my toe! What an idiot but I was a lovely all over colour for the festive season.

Well I was a 6.7 this morning which isn’t great for me but hopefully it will improve again. Last year I was regularly getting into low 5’s and it was like the diabetes didn’t exist for some time. However, it does and I need to address it.

Best wishes to everyone and keep up the good fight.

Amigo x

Dear Amigo ~ how could we forget you ~ you've been an integral part of the forum since you joined in 2015. I recall you lending your support to so many of us ~ sensitive to our eagerness to learn more about our individual Diabetes ~ advising others & myself through our difficulties ~ sharing your sense of humour with us notwithstanding that you were struggling with your Leukaemia at that time, this was your inner strength shining through. I hold much admiration for you.
My best wishes whilst you're undergoing your treatment Amigo. I imagine it is taking its toll on you but you're strong my friend and I expect you'll give it your best shot and not give in that easily to the harshness of the anti cancer drug. (((WARM GENTLE HUGS)))

6.7 is perfectly acceptable so please don't worry about that your bgls are slightly higher than they used to be. Great HbA1c btw.

Welcome back Amigo, you've been missed.
