Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all it’s a 5.0

Hoping things settle for you @Lanny

No face to face appointments at high risk podiatry ongoing, they’ll ring me again in July. I spoke to Diabetes UK about it but feeling quite despondent about it all. :(

Have a good time with your Mum & selection of birthday cakes @Bloden, it’s my lovely Mums birthday today as well 🙂

Have a good day out there.

Morning all, 6.6 here, but I was 5.3 at 5am when I first woke up, and stayed out of the red overnight.
@mum2westiesGill , there’s not much to comment about.You were a good figure for going to bed on, and a good awaking figure. What it would be useful to know is what happened in between, after your unbolused for bedtime snack. Did you scan your Libre when you first woke up, and had the graph remained stable, falling gently through the night, did it peak after the snack and then fall, or did it drop sharply an then rise towards morning?

Hi @Robin I've gone back to just finger pricking for now - I did wake and do a finger prick at 04:33 and bg was 8.2

Ah, so that 4am one shows that your bedtime snack did raise you, but you needed it as you then fell towards morning. I think you’re in the middle of waiting to see the effect of a lowering in your basal, if I remember, so see how it goes.
 
@Gwynn @HenryBennett @Bloden @MeeTooTeeTwo Congrats to all of you on the HS
@Lanny so glad you are home with the all clear. You must be pooped
@Bloden hope you have a lovely time with your mum x
@goodybags glad to hear your eye was ok, what a relief!!
A horrible 8.2 today but had a bad night, not going into work and have low abdo pain, probably my mesh problem, who knows?
Have a good day all x
 
4.1 Garden is beckoning me as the sun is out so planting my Jasmine out they have been sitting in pot's for far too long.
 
Yay! :D Heart rate back to 78 after snoozing & asda texted me about 1 sub of wholemeal instead of 50/50 woke me! I dreamt of being in A&E all night: like dreaming about hectic nights at the restaurant after one; prolonged stress needs to be gone over again in sleep with calming hormones to get over the stress!🙄 From “Why We Sleep” which I read a little while ago! Hopefully back for more sleep & I’m VERY relieved my heart rate is returning to normal levels! Ironically being IN A&E kept it elevated all night!o_O
 
4.3 for me this morning despite a basal reduction of 3 units last night and I still dipped into the red slightly (3.9) needing 2 dextrose tablets at 4.30am. I got back into my exercise yesterday so that's why it dropped and I got to eat 8 dried apricots yesterday and a couple of jelly babies in an occasionally failed effort to prevent me dropping into the red.... a couple of very minor excursions though. Needless to say, another 2 units dropped from my morning basal dose today. Wet and miserable here and looks to have been raining all night. Trying to psych myself up to go out for a run despite the weather.

@Lanny So relieved to hear you have been thoroughly checked out and allowed to return home. Hope you are back to your normal self soon.

@Bloden @HenryBennett @MeeTooTeeTwo and @Gwynn Congratul;ations to you all on your quartet of House Specials. I think that might be a record! Martin hasn't signed in today yet so I wonder if he can make it 5. That definitely would be a record of HSs for one day. The pressure is on Dez for a hattrick tomorrow!

@Flower and @Bloden Hope you both have a lovely time with your respective Mum's and enjoy that cake!

@SueEK Sorry to hear that you are struggling with abdominal pain again Sue, but a day off work will at least relieve some of the mental pressure/stress, although I am guessing it will just add to your workload when you get back there. Do you have a date for your surgery? I imagine it will be pretty daunting but worrying when it is flaring up like this.

Good morning 7.0 today

so yesterday off work back to eye hospital, I was quite concerned yesterday following eyelea injections
as seeing black buttons dancing round in my field of vision in my left eye,
on checking thoroughly they confirmed nothing of concern, just air bubbles I’m hoping they dissipate later today, they are still there but today they have stopped dancing around so much or maybe my brain is gett used to seeing them
I've had a floater living in one eye for a few years now, but this is totally different - more like tripping on LSD ( not that I ever did drugs) hopefully will ok to drive and be back at work tomorrow.

Have a Great Day Everybody

I've only had laser, no injections but I have a very odd floater (never been able to figure out which eye) and it basically looks like one of those trippy circular optical they used to use to hypnotise people with! Lots of wired blotches of colour too, more like a Salvador dali painting up in my world- but you get used to it. It sounds like yours could go away so I cross my fingers for you. Glad you're OK though.
 
Morning all. Treat a 3.8 at 6 am and back to bed for a lie in and now 7.5.

Off for a massage I booked in January for back pain, unfortunately we went into lockdown so I couldn't have it then. The back pain has gone now but it's not a relaxing massage so I hope I'm not in too much pain tomorrow! Have a good day all.
 
Congrats to @Gwynn @HenryBennett @Bloden and @MeeTooTeeTwo on the House Specials. Four in one day is a great result.

Not joining you myself as I registered a 5.0 at 06:12 this morning which I'm perfectly happy with.

@Lanny sorry to hear about your night in A&E. But at least you are home now and have been checked out.

Take care everyone and have a great day.
 
Thanks @rebrascora thankfully I don’t get it bad very often. Drs immediately think bladder infection but tests show it’s not which leaves only the mesh so I just assume it is that. Next appt is telephone consultation in September!! This is after being told it was urgent after procedure in December. There are now only 2 instead of 3 hospitals in England that do the op - what can you do? Nothing!! I’m fine though, many people are suffering with this problem much more than me. One day there will be a huge outcry about this and the makers and governing bodies brought to book. Moan over 🙂
 
Congratulations to all those with HS today. 4.7 for me this morning.

@SueEK sorry to hear of your pain, hope it gets sorted.

Apologies everyone I went through and read all the posts then realised a didn't press like.

Arm is better today from jab and I managed some gentle exercise yesterday and my relaxation yoga, also managed this morning's sunrise yoga which is a bit more energetic than the evening yoga. Going to run this evening.

Have a good day all.
 
Went to see my doctor this morning for some anti-biotics and to continue my battle for my first Covid jab, Andalucia is bragging in the newspapers about injecting the over 40's but I have not had any call. Within an hour I received an appointment in Baeza for 10.10 tomorrow and Pablo will drive me there. Squeaky wheel and grease comes to mind
 
Oops! Didn't see my fellow House Specialist earlier. Well done @Bloden. 🙂
@rebrascora Barbara, I'm already in training for that hat trick - Uummm, think I'll have pasta tonight and a great big piece of chocolate.😱😳

Dez
 
Restaurants, bars etc are only just opening up here, so we went out to one our favourite restaurants tonight. Two hours after three courses including, bread, mashed potato and sticky toffee pudding my finger prick is 6.8, which is pretty pleasing.
