Your bedroom must be massive and you can always play in the sandpit if you get fed up with the golf 🙂
 
Morning all. :D 5.8 for me.

Nothing much to report. Oh yeah, I’ve been summoned for the jab. Woohoo! That’s as exciting as it gets.😛

Nice results @ColinUK.🙂 Roll on nicer weather and more opportunities to get outside and move around.
 
Morning

A much better 6.0 for me today after a day of being higher yesterday

Up until just before 10pm Bruce didn't even have a sore arm after his vaccine, don't know if anythings changed as he won't be up yet!

Morning all my fellow finger jabbers. A 5.7 today. Had the best nights sleep for over a week. Feel calmer about everything, had a good old natter with daughter and she was in good spirits, she did admit to being totally overwhelmed initially yesterday morning and hadn’t slept well, but had put a wash on and felt better. I knew exactly what she meant. She’s like me in that way, can’t stand chaos. Zara is doing well though and the she was weighed by the Health Visitor and had gained weight, so that’s good, she’s feeding very well now.

Today we are going for a walk, haven’t been out all week, unless you count Boots the Chemist and Tesco! Weather isn’t great, dull but dry. Hope you all have a smashing Saturday. 🙂

@ColinUK 40 is a great score and “normal” is good, on the whole! 😉
 
Morning all! 🙂
My reading earlier was 4.6. 🙂 Forgot to post it then because it was actually sunny and I wanted out for my early morning exercise. 😳🙄

5.1 this morning.
 
Gloriously sunny day today here, looks like it should be shorts and t-shirt weather but actually quite cold.
7.6 for me. Had to take another sample to the docs yesterday as hospital wanted more??
@Gwynn how did you get on yesterday?
Have a lovely day all x
 
Morning everyone. Woke to a 3.8 on sensor but finger prick showed 4.1..a bit too low to start injecting for breakfast. A jelly baby later it rose to 4.9.
Had 2 consecutive full days back at school and felt shattered last night. I'll be completely whacked this time next week if those 2 days were anything to go by! Still, it will be lovely to see all of the children back and get into a routine again.

Cleaning and vaccuuming beckons this morning though. Have a good Saturday all.
 
SueEK: Thank you for showing an interest.

My wife was brilliant and very upbeat. Wecwalked to the hospital where she got her jab and then walked back. A really nice outing. All went well....

Until this morning.

She seems to have reacted to the astrozennicca Covid jab by becomming a bit poorly. She is in bed trying to get some rest. I am keeping an eye on her just in case things get worse (or better)

Those I’ve known shook it off in 24 to 48 hours. Let’s hope your wife recovers very quickly. But how good that the day went so well.
 
6.7 for me this morning, but not exactly a fasting reading as I had 20g unbolused carbs before bed which took me up to 9 and a malted milk biscuit just before 1am to try to head off a hypo (I was 5.4 at that point so really thought I had cracked it) and then my rather too frequent 4am hypo (4.14am to be precise this morning) when I woke to my Libre reading "LO" Thought perhaps I had been lying on it although I am pretty careful not to. Scanned again and still "LO" so jumped out of bed in a panic and did a finger prick, but BG meter was too cold and died mid test so it went under my arm to warm up for a minute or two and then gave me a reading of 3.1 and vision was starting to go flashy. Had 3 JBs and 4 jelly beans and then half a slice of wholemeal bread with jam. I was frozen by the time I was satisfied that it was safe to get back into bed and go to sleep but took ages to warm up enough to drop off. Fully expected to be in double figures when the alarm went off, so very happy with 6.7 but another basal reduction on the cards for tonight. Still needing 20 units on a morning though which may be the problem but by 4am it should be pretty well spent. Definitely suffered a hypo hangover this morning but a couple of paracetamol fixed it.

On a positive note my broody hen has hatched all 7 eggs she was on into healthy little chicks and is doing a sterling job looking after them. She hasn't raised chicks before so I am really impressed with how well she has done and how biddable she has been, in allowing me to move her from her chosen spot to a cat carrier when the chicks started hatching as other hens were wanting to lay eggs in her nest and there was a risk of the chicks getting crushed. 2 of the eggs were several days later than the others in hatching despite all being set at the same time and I had to assist them to hatch and they bled quite a bit which can mean they don't make it but she has pulled them through, so I really can't fault her and she will warrant a name now if anyone wants to make suggestions. Maybe Lena after Len Goodman's "SEVEN!"

@Gwynn So pleased things went well yesterday. The positive thing you can take from your wife feeling unwell today is that her immune system is taking action against the vaccine which is better than it ignoring it. Hope it is just transient and she feel better soon. I was OK the first week after the jab apart from BG readings spiking unusually high on occasions, but I felt rotten the second week. Might be completely unrelated but was absolutely washed out and just wanted my bed once I had seen to all the animals. Will be interesting to see how I react to the second jab.

@ColinUK I think you can be pretty happy with your result of 40 all things considered and if it spurs you on to do better, well that is a good thing too. My last result was 48 which I was ecstatic about and my 90+% Time in Range to go with it was brilliant, but I have been unable to consistently maintain that over the longer term, which has been disappointing and demoralizing so there are plusses and minuses to getting really good readings as they come with pressure to continue to achieve/improve them which ultimately is unrealistic, so being there or thereabouts is ideal.

@Anitram As discussed a few weeks ago on another thread, I too have always wondered if you might be LADA. Could the vaccine have possible triggered your immune system into having a go at your Beta cells again. Maybe temporarily reducing your carbs a bit more might help them to recover. Just a thought. I am guessing they can regenerate providing that the attack on them is not prolonged.

I had the AZ and had the mother of all headaches and generally ached all over. Was fine after 48 hours. I’m sure she’ll be better soon. On the other hand hubby had Pfizer and not one reaction at all.

I’m so pleased for you both that all went well and hope that your wife recovers quickly, hopefully it will be short lived x
