Group 7-day waking average?

5.8 this morning but that was after a 3.5 unit correction 2hours earlier for a 10.1 which had risen up from 6 during the night... that will teach me not to get out for exercise!. I have held steady on 5.8 for the last 45mins so I am guessing I am having a strong DP today to soak up that much insulin without anything to eat.

@Ibby That is a bit better number isn't it? If I remember rightly he was mid teens to 20s wasn't he?

@Kaylz So sorry you are upset. If you want to share the reason why, we are here to listen and support you as much as we can virtually. Sending (((hugs)))

just my anxiety taking over with Bruce being out xx
 
Good morning everyone. After a spiky day on the libre graph yesterday and an overnight correction, i woke to a 5.5. Twenty minutes later, scanned for breakfast and the sensor has given up! Its been saying "scan again in 10 minutes" for the last half hour now. Think a call to Abbott is in order as its only 5 days old, still over a week left on it.

I'm not usually a football fan but Come On England!!!!

Have a good day all.

Oh dear, yes, sorry, I had forgotten about him going out somewhere new. In some respects it is a shame he told you, when the anxiety about it affects you so badly. Do you think it is better for you to know or not know?

Do you all not have a later start on Sundays. ( It is supposed to be the day of rest! Lol)

Nope. 40+ years as a wage slave - if I sleep in on Saturday and Sunday it’s more difficult to wake up on Monday morning.

Must have heard you threatening to rat on it to Abbott and bucked it's ideas up. Maybe they have a torture room for naughty sensors that slack on the job and get sent back!
 
Afternoon all. A lie in for me, 6.5. I was tired out. Only had the kids for 4 hours yesterday! 😉

Currently awaiting the chef to finishing cooking me my full English. Off to see the Flying Scotsman later, the advantage of living a walk away from the Carlisle to Settle line. Just hope the rain holds off. It’s not looking good. I may be holding a brolly over Mr Eggy’s camera equipment. Oh the joy of being a photography widow. Could be worse I suppose, he could be a golfer! 😛

@Bexlee congrats for HS yesterday.
@Gwynn glad your day turned out ok.
@Robin I’m with you on the fish and chips, I usually split my dose but quite often forget to take the second one!

Habe a great day and Come on England! 🙂

You only go to look up his Kilt when he takes off at least we southerners have the decency to wear trousers and pants.

It all depends on the Meds you are on, whether you have to test with driving. Insulin Yes. And certain medication, which can cause Hypos. (I won’t name them, because not sure and if I get them wrong, I could be in big trouble)!!
It would be best to check rules with your Doctor or consultant.

Morning all. I seem to be constantly in the 8s now. Not best pleased.

Re driving I don't drive. Not with my kind of autism. I nearly killed me and my British School of Motoring driving instructor.

My sister does all our driving and is long term type 2 on insulin and oblivious.

I have tried telling her but no. On the motorway I keep up a constant stream of conversation to Our Lady.

I have one jealous husband now at the mention of the flying Scotsman never mind photography! He volunteers on a local (full size) steam railway. It’s a lovely one that goes along the coast. I lose him at least once a week! Enjoy maybe a photo to see later?

@Dxxoo
It sounds as though you are stuck between a rock and a hard place.
To keep a driving license as Type 2 on Insulin DVLA have to be informed and lay down strict instructions on a Medical License.
If an accident occurs, and the person is not driving to the DVLA standards then Insurance may be invalid.
Police can also prosecute, the drivers, if the rules are not followed.
It may be OK for your sister to commit suicide but is it fair if she takes passengers or outside people with her.
I wish you luck!

6.3 this morning.

car to clean and a lesson on wiring plugs to prepare for year 9. One more week of teaching then a few days of been normal and even some trips. I can’t believe it’s the end of the (school) year again. It seems to have gone quick. Just hope September is normal and not interrupted for all of us.
Have a good day.
 
Morning all a me d it was a 5.3 for me.

@eggyg we're hoping to see the Flying Scotsman later on as we aren't far from the Keighley to Skipton part of the line.

Off for a Covid test at lunch time prior to a visit to hospital on Wednesday. A bit annoying that it's drive through only as I could walk there in 10 mins.

I wonder what's on the telly tonight?

Have a good day everyone.

I think it will be mostly about thousands of people packed into a stadium, (spreading Covid), watching 22 overpaid men kicking a spherical plastic thing about on a piece of grass!
