@adrian1der congrats on the HS @merrymunky come on luv, don’t stay away xx
Freezing cold at work, heating not working like being in an igloo, couldn’t get my fingers tip tapping. Ice on car and frost on the ground bbrrrr
Hello lovely. Had a bad week or so again and haven’t been testing on waking though I know given how I’ve woken in the night feeling insanely thirsty my levels are probably too high.

Don’t worry luv, when life is so very busy, as I know you are we fall behind on things. Take your time, I know you know exactly what to do and take it in steps that you can manage. Come on you know we are here to support you. You don’t need fantastic readings to post, no-one is going to judge you. As you may have seen my levels haven’t been great for a number of months now and I’m definitely struggling with the diet. Good to hear from you xxx

Just glad that you are posting on here. That is the first step and we are here for you.
You know what to do and you have done it before.
Keep in touch whatever your levels.
I go for walks late at night sometimes with our two (no leads) - they love it - though I'm waiting for someone to call the rozzers on me as I hang around random houses peering into gardens or up trees looking for them.
15.2 for me this am. Since going on levemir my body cannot get a handle on how it wants to respond overnight. Spent the last week with overnight los and now seem to be having highs to avoid them.
Think it's time to get the bg diary out again. Going to bed at 5.1 so fingers crossed!
6.7 this morning. Had some lovely flowers and a dressing gown from my son yesterday, apparently my pressie from my daughter is arriving Wednesday . Off to work. Have a good day all x
06:27 BS 5.1 🙂 Not waking as it’s 5 hours & 28 minutes after breakfast! Woke just after midnight, 00:47 BS 10.9 but LR was very late!😳 Bunged it in & added a correction of +10, 5mmol higher at 2 units/mmol that soon after waking, on top of my breakfast dose, currently 40 despite dialling it back a bit from tummy bug, for a quite scary 50 units of NR: good thing that I learnt to do that & have enough experience of ME to do that fairly confidently; could & would NEVER have had the confidence to do THAT in the past before joining the forum & learning about using insulin better! 😱 I was VERY dependent on my DSN giving me my doses before that & now I mostly do that myself: not that I get it right ALL the time; but, a goodly proportion of it! Was still a little nauseous yesterday & sleepy as I slept again a few hours after getting up at 4pm ish: I think around 7:30 pm ish so, just enough time to cook & eat, really! Played golf in bed & lost track of time so, forgot to test after breakfast which, I suspect from previous experience, would still have been higher than target range but, has come down nicely & if I’d tested; wouldn’t have corrected!🙄
A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
Morning all. A surprising 9.8 this morning bearing in mind i went to bed on a 6 and the graph showed a steady line most of the night.
Back to work again this week, hope its better than last week.
Have a good day everyone.
Morning folks. 3.9 here. I’ve recently noticed the Libre doesn’t think this is a hypo, which means the reader doesn’t record all my lows...hmmm.😳
I finished painting the spare room yesterday, so it isn’t a beige-custard colour anymore, yippee. A quick clean and re-hang the curtains, and...wait until peeps can come n stay again. 😎
Welcome back @KARNAK. What tales of your adventures do you have for us?
Morning all and welcome back Ted @KARNAK, where the blooming heck have you been? You know I worry! Anyhoo, another Len Goodman, SEVEN! I really need to get some exercise this week. The sun is shining, the forecast looks hopeful for the remainder of the week so some long walks planned.
Lots of lovely presents off my daughters yesterday, but I would have given them all up for a hug from them. Yet another Mother’s Day without hugs and celebrations. I’m am so over this pandemic now. The good news is, I did get to hold baby Zara at last, we’ve bubbled with them. I didn’t kiss her even though I was very tempted, and it was only a few minutes but it was the best present ever.
I’ve already stripped my bed and it’s in the machine, and it is definitely going on the line today. It must be spring. Have a great day. 🙂
