my levels were a bit high yesterday evening so 6.5 this morning was welcome
over last few days my arthritic ankle is swollen quite badly and painful
hopefully the long awaited steroid injection comes very soon
will chase the orthopaedic department.
Looking forward to resting at the weekend, have a great day everybody 😎
I've had that, just keep checking, its a problem with the site.
Morning all, after a high of 13 going up fast overnight (finger prick 9.3) then every time i scanned over the next 5 mins it dropped to 11.2 (!), i woke this morning to a 5.2 ta-daaa!!!! I'll take that.
5.9 this a.m. BG was weird yesterday achieving 8.6 at 4 hours after a breakfast of 350 cals and 10 carbs, checked an hour later at 9.1. Maybe unloading a trailer of straw put it up?
Cancelled Christmas yesterday. Seems silly to encourage family from Oxfordshire, where Covid levels 4 times higher than West Wales, to come and share house for a week. So that'll be me sharing roast sirloin with the dog. Technology can come into its own and we can video call.
Mild this morning. Hope everyone feeling well.
They did, but to me it didn’t look as thin as when I’ve seen 90 year old Greek women making it! @ColinUK life is too short for stuffing mushrooms and making filo pastry! 😛
Good morning, 6.3 this morning - not bad after a portion of homemade apple crumble with squirty cream - did warn family it was made with sweetener instead of sugar so not to over-indulge.
I'm out most of today - got coffee morning in a while then "we" are all off to the carvery for a 3-course Christmas lunch - I won't eat 3 courses I'm sure, I might "dip into" the starter and dessert for a taster, but really looking forward to a small carvery with low carbs as it was so good last week.
Mild and sunny today apparently.
Had a rough night so will probably fall asleep when I do get home, so no worries if all you hear from me is a snore! lol
Enjoy your day 🙂
Last night I changed my target range from 5-8mmol to 6-10mmol to try and get my hypo awareness back.
7:46 BG 9.5. Within target. Waking. 15 units tresiba done.
In the early hours couldn't resist 1x piece of chocolate orange which was in my bedside cabinet drawer. 5g carbs.
23:24 BG 8.3. Had 2x rich tea biscuits. No humalog.
22:14 BG 5.7. Tiny bit below new target range of 6-10mmol.
19:16 BG 5.0. Within old target range of 5-8mmol.
Tea. Tesco cottage pie, 1x round of hovis medium white sliced, muller corner fruit yogurt, 4x pieces of chocolate orange. 102g carbs. 9.5 units humalog food.
Morning peeps!
11.2 which after my latest trends of 17s makes me very happy 🙂
Got doctors today for bloods (kidney function test) and to check on the fluid in my legs to see if we need to adjust dosages of water tablets. Have done my own bp reading to take in so we can safely ignore the reading taken in the surgery which will be shocking
Right gotta get organised, will be time to get out the door before I know it 🙂
7.4 here.
