Morning folks on this wet and miserable Tuesday. But, hark, I have glad tidings, after saying yesterday I hadn’t had a house special for ages and must try harder, I’ve only blooming’ gone and got one! Room for a little one on the 5.2 step @Hazel and @MeeTooTeeTwo? And after a rubbish three nights I had a good sleep. I might put the lottery on! :D

No plans, the rain is set for the day according to the BBC weather app. :(

@Flower sorry your frozen shoulders have returned, my consultant told me that you rarely get it twice, I’ve had it in both, but I don’t t believe him. I still get pain in my shoulders on a daily basis and it’s 10 and 5 years since mine first started. And then to add insult to injury he charges you pensioners rates! I did laugh though because similar happened to me, when I was in my early 50s I went to the cinema with two ( much) younger colleagues to see Les Miserables. We had made a mistake and had gone on the subtitles night for the hard of hearing but it didn’t matter. On the way home I remarked how cheap it seemed to be as I’d also had a small tub of ice cream. They said they thought it was expensive. I looked at my receipt, I’d been charge as an OAP! I think they must have thought my colleagues were my carers! I almost went back and demanded I pay the extra! I did laugh about it…..eventually! 🙂

Have a good day everyone.🙂

@Hazel and @MeeTooTeeTwo congrats on the HS
@goodybags hope your review goes well
@Bloden frozen shoulders are so painful, I hope it eases soon.
7 on the nose today. As @Maca44 says weather on the south coast is awful. Hoping to go for a mooch around in Chichester today if it lets up. Friend coming down tomorrow for a few days, so looking forward to it xx
 
@eggyg well done on your HS x
 
Well done @eggyg on your HS this morning. 🙂

Morning

Yesterday was the first day I'd managed 100% in target for goodness knows how long! It won't last though :(

9.0 for me along with a thumping headache, stressed already, went to get my breakfast and myself seen to and Bubbles started playing up, knocked a load of stuff off the wall unit, meowing loudly etc, starting to get really fed up of his crap :(

Congrats to all those with HS's today! xx
 
11.2 this morning. Not sure why.
 
@eggyg, @Hazel. @MeeTooTeeTwo congratulations to all 3 of you on your HS, well done.

@Flower sorry to hear about the frozen shoulder, even though mine was many years ago, I remember the pain, hope it starts healing soon.

6.3 for me today, not sure if it was because I didn't get my dinner until gone 10 last night following a 5k run and yoga which should be an hour session but was almost an hour and a half last night, which is why I was so late eating.

Have a good \tuesday everyone, it started off sunny in my part of Essex, but is now gloomy.
 
Very happy with a 5.6 this morning but I am still needing corrections in the evening and at bedtime.
New sensor last night. Will be happy if this one gives me lots more 5s..... even if it lies as long as I have no reason to check it and find out.... Actually I just did a calibration check and it gave me a 7.0 after breakfast and finger prick shows 6.8 so looking pretty accurate. Just getting a good result when you wake up puts a whole different slant on the day as I am sure you trio of House Specialers can attest.... Great to see @Hazel and @MeeTooTeeTwo doing what they do best and delighted for you @eggyg giving them a run for their money. That is your second one in the last month or so isn't it? And a bonus of a good night's sleep too.

@Flower Hope your visit to the osteopath gives you some relief and not just in the financial sense!! 😱 I wonder if your night time hypo was related to your osteopath visit. Hope your levels have stabilized now and you are recovering from hypo after effects. PS. If you are throwing out that mirror send it here. I'll happily give a home to a mirror which flatters

@merrymunky We all get blips and anomalies. They can be demoralizing but don't let it derail you. You are doing great. Keep up the good work.

@Ali11782 Well done on taking up a step challenge but not nice having a nocturnal hypo. Hope you feel better now. I find increased exercise really drops my night time levels, so my evening Levemir needs reducing. If I do enough exercise on a daily basis I can reduce my Levemir to the point that I don't need any on an evening, which I love, but it takes a lot of commitment to maintain over the long term. The advantage of Levemir is that it is flexible enough to be able to adjust it on a day to day basis.

@mum2westiesGill Another vote for too many bedtime carbs now you have reduced your Tresiba but as @Robin says, better to err on the side of caution, particularly when experimenting with alcohol. Hope you enjoyed your G&Ts and you have a great night tonight with your friends.

One of mine jumps on my shoulder and sits there digging his claws in to balance while I am gardening, painful but cute 🙂.

You'd think his cone might put him off though, he's the worst cat I've ever had :( xx

Oh sorry, by the time I get to replying I’ve already forgotten who it was, talk about mega brain fog. @Flower hope your shoulder improves and I hope my memory does lol x
 
Had a face to face meeting with the diabetic consultant this morning.
looked at my 3 months meter readings and he’ll back me to get my class 2 license back but said DVLA had not sent the correct form.
he says it’s VDIAB 21/c. Just spoken to DVLA they insist it’s VDIAB1I.
Then DVLA want a new medical D4 form filled in… change from last time we spoke. National Express have finally agreed to put me through that but don’t think it covers this case. Clearly does as Question 2 is on diabetes.
They have given me new glucose meters which also test for ketones but it also connects directly to the hospital. Just got to get doctor to change glucose sticks to fit new meter. They also have cut out my Metformin tablets. What effect will that have?
On a brighter note my HbA1c result was 48. Is that good bad or indifferent?
 
@DuncanLord which meter have they given you now?

In regards to the metformin as you've been given a Type 1 diagnosis now it may have no effect on your levels at all but some Type 1's do develop insulin resistance and need it too so if it does show any difference then be sure to let them know

Was there anything mentioned about changing your insulin regime to a basal/bolus regime? If your happy on what your doing now that's fine as it's clearly working

Congratulations on the hba1c 🙂 xx
 
@Kaylz
They have changed it to the Sure Smart Duo from the Gluco RX Q.
It’s made by Nipro and links in with the Diabetes:m app, via Bluetooth. So that it puts all data straight to phone.
The App also transfers data to the diabetes team, if I’ve set it up correctly!!!!!!!

They did mention basal / bolus regime but said as I’m only using 2 units in morning and 1 unit in evening it might be difficult to slit it over 5 injections. We will have to see what my body does!!
