Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all it’s a 7.1 today.

Off on a journey to a funeral so had to get dressed properly this morning! Not my usual lockdown wear 😱 I’ve put my pump on vibrate instead of siren alarm so I don’t cause a scene. Iceland was disappointing on green items but found my old green suede handbag so it’s coming out for the day. Deep breath...

I hope you’re all doing as well as possible. 🙂
 
Morning all, 5.1 here. Went for a walk yesterday afternoon and it was tee shirt weather. Meeting daughter for a walk this afternoon, and tea in her garden. I’ve been seeing her every week as we’ve been riding together, but it’ll be the first time my husband has seen her since Christmas.
 
5.0 for me today. 🙂

Morning all. 6.8 today, nothing whatsoever to do with fish, chips and mushy peas at the seaside yesterday. 🙄 We had a great day, sunny and dry, what more could we ask for. A bit warmth perhaps? Couldn’t believe the news headlines when we got home, suffering from wind burn. Hottest March day for 50 years! I had gloves on! That’s the Solway coast for you. Quiet day at home, supposed to be quite warm, we’re staying inland today!

Have a great day everyone. Last day of March, and shielding. Whoopee! I’m obviously going to grow a new spleen at one minute past midnight! Boris says I can go back to work, no sure what my former boss will think about that considering I retired June 2017! Joking aside, could be quite stressful for my fellow shielders who have to go to back to work, so take care out there. 🙂

@Gwynn the seaside is a guaranteed place to make us feel happier, glad you both had a nice day.
@Flower a “ normal” funeral is a hard enough thing to attend but a lockdown funeral is very strange and disconcerting, hope it goes well for all concerned.
 
Morning

8.1 for me

Success with the duvet covers, they were left in my "safe place" about 45 minutes before Bruce got home from work 🙂

6.1

Lots of police stuff today. And Netflix.
 
8.1 for me the first time I woke up but felt ropey so shot myself 2 units of Fiasp and my Levemir +1 (up to 24 units now!!.... when is it going to end?) as yesterday I needed corrections again. Swallowed a couple of paracetamols for a brewing headache and went back to bed and woke up on a nice 4.8 which just seems like a much better number to start the day!

I kept between the lines on my Libre though and managing to keep that hypo figure to 1% for the past 14 days now which is a personal best, so whilst the higher numbers I am getting are not ideal, at least there is some saving grace in it.

@ColinUK I was just going to ask how you were doing as you seemed to be late on parade today. Hope the "police stuff" isn't too harrowing and the Netflix helps you to chill afterwards.
 
A 5.4 for me at 07:42 this morning. Overcast currently although we might see some sun this afternoon.

Just tired today. Walked about 12 miles yesterday. Possibly nothing today.
Also have a phone consultation with the GP I really don’t like later. I’ve requested that it be....

Got interrupted by the police calling!

... changed to be with the GP I like but if it isn’t I’ll still speak with the horrible one.

7.1 this morning. Upped my tresiba by 1 unit today as my libre graph is looking good just a little higher than it should be.

Returning to work tomorrow, only a 30 hour shift though! So lets see how normality effects the BG.

@Flower thinking of you today.

Hope all goes well today Flower. Warm hugs for you xx
 
I really feel like eating. A real curry. Followed by something with tonnes of cream and chocolate.

Just got off the phone with the GP I don’t warm to.

First he asked why I had stopped taking my escitalopram in September. I haven’t. They gave me a repeat prescription for it two weeks ago.
Then he looked at my HbA1C and said “has anyone actually given you a diagnosis of diabetes?”
Yes doctor. You did.
“Well it seems to be very mild so count yourself lucky. So what did you want today?”
It’s all on the e-consult I filled out
Cue a massive sigh from him “Fine. I’ll read it then”
Anyway, up shot is referral to mental health team and a preliminary diagnosis of PTSD, prescription for statin and for something for the hypertension which he said “I’m not happy not treating it because diabetics always die from cardiovascular things and you’re getting old now too”
I’m 54 ffs.

Checked the consultation notes in the system after he hung up and of course they’re wrong so I’ve corrected them. Which will please him immensely I’m sure.

Have had a call with a different police team today and I’m exhausted hence the automatic pull towards food.
