Morning all. A pleasing 6.1 this morning. My lowest ever waking reading. I’ll take that.

Today can sod off thoigh. It’s the consultant appointment at the maternity unit to get the post mortem results for my son. I don’t want to go. Last time I was in that building I had to leave without my baby. I don’t want to hear all the things that were wrong with him. It’s going to open up the wounds that havent healed yet again.

@merrymunky much love to you, will be thinking of you, lovely x

4.3, had breakfast 5.6. Feel v shaky and lightheaded today, spoken to DSN who is just baffled, left message for GP as matter of courtesy. Maybe I just don’t get on with Metformin and the blood tests are throwing everything out

I wondered how you were getting on. I wonder if your GP has any ideas or will do the thing my GP does and simply shrugs her shoulders.🙄
 
Good morning folks🙂

Woke up twice this morning...

(a) woke at 7.10, stiff as a plank after yesterday’s shopping. CBD oil taken to straighten myself out. Libre told me I was 2.5, straight line sinking overnight. Blood test said 3.1. Three JBs, went back to sleep.🙄

(b) woke at 10.30, legs moving better, BG 5.5.🙂

Think I might adjust Levemir a tad tonight. I blame the weather. Or the Diabetes Fairy, haven’t decided yet. Climate or Quantum emanation?

Anyway, all back to normal. Cloudy day. I’ve got to mess the place up a bit today, the cleaner is coming tomorrow. Mrs B’s parents had a cleaner, and her mum always tidied up before she came. That’s daft, a bit like waiting to get better before you go to the doctor.:confused:

I watched the The Yorkshire Ripper Files on BBC4 last night. My God, The Yorkshire police were stupid. They had perfect photo fits of what he looked like from two survivors of attacks but the police ignored the evidence because firstly they weren’t dead, but mainly because they weren’t prostitutes. And, believe it or not, because he wasn’t black. When a 16 year old shop assistant was killed, they paid attention- she was described as an “innocent victim”. If you missed it, watch on catch up, but be ready to be appalled. Further women died because of police stupidity and Neolithic attitudes. Two more episodes to go tonight and tomorrow.

Have a good day, everyone, I will. Designated slob day🙂
 
Thank you everyone. Today has been incredibly tough and completely emotionally draining.
My poor son never stood a chance of life. The sheer list of problems seems endless.

I may create a thread in off topic to talk more rather than cluttering this thread up.

Just wanted to say that I appreciate your thoughts and well wishes today.
 
04:23 BS 7.1. Ok ish! I think I slightly underestimated the bolus dose for dinner!🙄 Yesterday was a bit of a guessing game in terms of insulin as all of my bolus doses went down. Yesterday was a warm day & I had a feeling, especially from the last couple of days, my bolus doses needed reducing. I ended up slightly underestimating the breakfast dose of 20 units Novorapid as I was high BS 14.5 but, didn’t correct as it was just before midday Levemir. I got lunch more or less bang on the nose with 10 units Novorapid, almost halved for soup, & only went up 0.9mmol higher from BS 5.9 to BS 6.8. And ended up slightly underestimating dinner with 14 units Novorapid as well but, only just from BS 4.8 to BS 8.9. So, today I’ll try 22, 18 & 16 units Novorapid for my meals & roughly halving the dose if I have soup! That’s the plan anyway & I’ll see how it goes!🙄

A very early good morning to you all!🙂 Hopefully it’ll be another nice day!😉
 
Good morning. 4.8 . Apart from two minor blips my graph showed a near perfect flatfish.
The first one was caused by three soft mints .
I also woke up famished, so I’ll be having an early breakfast, which means I will probably be hungry lunchtime.
 
Morning. Managed to get a fairly decent sleep. Woken up to a 6.4. Not too shabby.
 
Good morning 7.7 on another beautiful day.🙂 Washing all done and dried, exercises done except walking which will be soon.🙄

Good result @merrymunky considering what you have been through. More {{{HUGS}}}

Enjoy your day folks, take care.🙂
 
Good morning everyone🙂

I woke (eventually) on 7.9, inluding a touch of DP. Not great, but no great worries.🙄

It’s a beautiful sunny day here, so I may well have lunch on the balcony to soak up a few rays to boost the creaky immune system and top up the Vit D. But mainly to avoid watching the lunchtime news. This Brexit madness is getting tedious. The country is going to hell in a handcart, not because of Brexit, but because of Party infighting. It’s very unedifying to watch. And governments are supposed to what’s best for the country. Sheesh:confused:

Still, at least we’ve all seen Britain’s worst Prime Minister since Lord North. He lost America. May will just lose Scotland and Northern Ireland. Careless, to say the least.:D

Oops - grumpy old gitness to the fore this morning. Still, at least the cleaner is coming this afternoon. Very attractive blonde, so that should improve the circulation🙄

Anyway, while I indulge in fantasies, have a good day folks, let the world go by🙂
 
Good afternoon all, a very late entry. I haven't posted here for a little while due to various things inc Real Life, and lately it's been a little higher partly cos I've got the lurgy :(. Also, an x-ray of my gammy knee the other day confirmed what I thought, that I have bad arthritis... the GP rang with results and said would I prefer to stay doing exercises, or did I want her to refer me for a knee operation? Eeeek! No thanks, I'll stay with the physio exercises, ta.

However this morning was a lovely jubbly HS 5.2, so I'm feeling better about things.
 
G'day all. 8.3 @ 9.36am not bad considering.
