Taking oral Vit B12 is useless if proton pump inhibitors are indeed inhibiting your ability to absorb it. Injections are the only way.

I am on a PPI (Lansoprazole) , and recent blood tests showed everything normal.and in range. They would like both HbA1c and cholesterol slightly lower. The only supplements I take are Vitamin D (prescribed) and Vitamin C to try and protect arteries from irritation.

@Bloden Gosh!" Quink....That is a blast from the past! Can't remember the last time I had a real pen in my hand with a reservoir that you needed to fill.... We had a biology teacher who insisted on us using a "fountain pen". Quite surprising really that he didn't have us all using goose quills.

Mr Eggy has an ink pen, he used it to sign contracts when he was a wage slave! It’s retired now. :rofl:

Sorry @rebrascora but that sounds horrible!

I believe it is known as Diabetic's coffee. Thankfully Ian is heading to the Tesco Express for some stuff for himself (whilst I battle yet another hypo🙄.... 4th one of the day plus a near miss!) so he is going to get me a pot of cream whilst he is there, so I won't need to resort to butter in the morning....Yippee! It is an acquired taste..... and I haven't quite acquired it yet 🙄 but coffee with just milk is more naff in my opinion. If I have cream I absolutely love it and it is my daily treat, if I have it with just milk it makes me long for sugar in it again, even though I use full fat milk. The butter at least makes it more "interesting".

Thank goodness for that. I'll have milk in coffee if its instant but prefer cream if i make a filter coffee. Butter would be a very definite no! I'd rather go without. I hope your levels have stabalised a bit more now.

Hi @MikeyBikey the "normal" blood tests for diabetes do not include a test for B12 deficiency. You would probably only be tested if you were showing signs of pernicious anaemia.
 
Good morning everyone. Very hot here. Slept really well tho 🙂

Already drunk 2 glasses of water !!!!

BG 5.1 yet another big tease

BP 113/72 good
Pulse 69 good

Today an early walk even though it is hot already, then, er....

Oddly my latest blood tests did not include serum B12. They used to and they were on the low side.

Have a great day today whatever you are doing.
 
Morning all. I actually stayed in target last night and woke to 4.9 with the libre alarm.

Off home today after a lovely week.

Congrats on the HS @ColinUK
 
A nice round 5 for me today and another hot and sunny day on the way. 🙂

4.8 here this morning so another very happy camper here in that respect but 4 hypos and a near miss yesterday and then levels went up to 12 last night and I had to hit it with a couple of stacked corrections before a rather late bedtime. Another 2 units knocked off the morning Levemir but kept last nights dose the same. Will see how I go today. Decided against applying a new Libre last night as 2 hot irritated, probably sweaty horses with lots of harness to change and probably a hot sweaty, stressed and rather distracted Barbara with a brand new, not even one day old Libre, even with an arm strap, is too much of a risk to it. Pretty sure I have dropped the Levemir enough now to be safe and will have plenty of mints in my pockets if I need them anyway although the horses won't be impressed at having to share with me. 🙄

Many congrats to @ColinUK on your house special this morning. Hope the ankle swelling is going down and you feel less mangled today. X

@Robin Hope you get a cooling breeze from somewhere. Our class is just after midday so we are going to be sweltering. We will be taking 5 gallons of water but think I will need to traipse the showground with the container and lug more back for GGs. It is going to be "HOT, HOT, HOT!"
 
Morning all, 6.2 and I’ve managed a lie in of sorts.

After a hectic week we found ourselves with a few free days so we’ve booked a cheeky getaway for two nights in the wilds of Northumberland. Not a million miles from you @rebrascora. We’re going tomorrow, back on Tuesday for more hecticness ( I don’t think that’s a word but it adequately conveys our life). It’s a hotel stay, someone to make my breakfast, my tea, and my bed! Bliss!

I will mostly be doing laundry and prepping the tea this morning, then sitting in the shade/ in the house for the rest of the day. Yesterday was very hot and today promises much of the same. I don’t know how you lot down south can stand it. At least it’s a bit cooler tomorrow for our trip away and thunder and lightening on Monday.

Congratulations @ColinUK on your HS.

Have a great day all, and keep safe. 🙂
 
Good morning 6.9 today
