After waking, much earlier, on a rather high figure that only got continually higher I finally realised Little Miss Numpty forgot a LR dose & BS is finally starting to come down!
😳🙄
03:41 BS 9.3!
😱 I thought I’d underbolused dinner before going to bed & wasn’t unduly worried, yet. Prepped 2 chicken casseroles, of 2 portions each, in the medium pie dishes (3.5 chicken thigh fillets cut up, diced onions, mushrooms, half a bag of frozen diced sauté potatoes, 1.5 oxo chicken garlic & thyme stockpots, mixed herbs & water two thirds of the way up in each one), without bolusing & tested when in the oven. Still can be unpredictable in the effort it takes to cook: if it stays the same or goes down I wait until I eat before I bolus; if it goes up I either pre bolus if it’s about 20 minutes max to food ready or DP bust by eating half an oatcake & half my NR dose if it’s going to be longer. In the case of chicken casserole it would be over an hour & actually took 1 hour & 25 minutes. So, 29 minutes later with casseroles in the oven 04:10 BS 10.7 which surprised me because I FELT the effort the prep had on me, usually meaning my BS drops, but, still not unduly worried & DP busted as it takes about an hour or longer to do casserole in the oven. It wasn’t until just before 06:00 that the casseroles were done, keep checking until potatoes are done, & I took them out of the oven & dished out 1 portion to eat & tested to find 06:00 BS 11..8!
😱 I was starting to worry as things were going up & up. But, then, 06:00 alarm went off for LR, my meter clock is about 30 seconds faster from when I set it & left it at that, & I saw the Timesulin cap reading at just short of 24 hours that I realised I’d missed my evening LR before going to bed!
😳 I’d been still reading when the 6pm alarm went off & didn’t inject straight away as I was in the middle of an interesting bit. Somehow or other I’d obviously forgotten to take the dose altogether when I turned in around 19:30!
🙄 Nothing could be done about the missed dose so, stuck in my usual LR & gave myself a +4 correction to my breakfast NR & ate. Now, 08:05 BS 8.5 is looking better & I’m relieved that things are coming down!
with a drop of sweat over one eye! BUT, what a silly numpty I am!
😳
A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!
