Morning all... finished this set of nights this morning - 6.5 on waking up, so very pleased with that, especially considering i went off my eating plan by having a take away curry last night (its a little treat we have in work on a Saturday nights).

Going to the Opticians tomorrow as my eyesight got progressively worse as the week went on, best to get things checked out.

Have a great remainder of your day 🙂
 
Hi folks a lovely 2 this morning and a hypo night was had by all, DSN was sent for think someone got a bollocking for leaving it so long glucogen injection administered.

Home on Tuesday if all is OK then stitches out the following Monday followed by a scan.

Congratulations on HS Tom, George anything but Sue, Martin. 🙂

Nice shed Colin and which garden centre did you get the statue from? very nice. Do you allow animals in? If so I'll bring the ex when I visit. 😎:D

Talking about the ex, Consultant visited last night and said you are doing remarkably well, on a different topic she said we think you have erectile dysfunction no need to be embarrassed we understand. Can you tell me when this began? (could do with a beer now,) take your time and speak the best you can we believe it's since your D diagnosis.

Thought about it and wasn't sure what to say, thought sod it just say it the way it was. I'm afraid it was a long time before that, she said and you didn't seek help? no I said I was too embarrassed. Oh perfectly normal reaction but we can treat it just need to know when you first noticed?

Red faced I said it was when I got caught playing Kama Sutra with the lady next door by the ex, surprising what Doc Martins will do for your love life, 😱😱:Dwish I bought her flip flops for her birthday. 🙄

Take care stay safe folks next episode soon, speech therapist has just arrived so speak to you later and in the words of the great man Allah can you go to the pharmacy and get me some semtex? I feel all blow Ted. 🙂
 
😳 Am I the latest on parade today? 13:02 BS 7.2 JUST about ok ish with meds & midday LR a bit late too! Got them in & had +2 correction then, brunch & after, just now more or less after catching up on this thread, 15:35 exactly 90 minutes after BS 12.8 not panicking, yet, & will leave it for another hour, or two, to see where I’m at: meds & LR late; not much time for extra little bit of NR to kick in & may do so later? 🙄

Yesterday was ffrreeeezzzing! The snow has been on the ground for the 3rd. day now & it’s looking like another night of it as it’s just starting to get dimmer towards the end of the day now! Played a LOT of golf in bed half under the duvet so, went to bed late & got up late today! 🙄:D😉

No other choice but, to go Australian today & wish you all a G’day mates & hope you’re all having a Good Day? 😉
 
Morning all, another white out here. A nice round 6 for me. Yesterday’s plan was correct, a lovely walk through the mist and frost then a nice bubbly bath. Today’s plan, Full English, got my sous chef on the job, then a chill watching the birds and maybe after our ablutions, another walk through the winter wonderland. Have a super Sunday. 🙂
A belated good morning, i miss read your post @eggyg as having a full english followed by a chilli. Lovely pic @ColinUK my daughter said the same about London last weekend when she cycled in, i would love to see it that quiet! I am still getting 10 to 12 in the mornings and still very frustrated as the pevious week was much better. We woke to a light dusting of snow which is quite unusual. Parts of Dartmoor are covered, but we haven't ventured far on our walks but can see haytor in the distance. Really fantastic clouds this evening too. Stay safe everyone x
 
Hello all, 8.5 @ 4.41am but I went back to bed later zzz

Bitter here, brother came round with frozen hands but he'd been wearing thermal gloves! Our snow has melted.

Full English AND a chilli, suppose that would get all the day’s meals out the way in one go! 😛
 
Hypo's can lead to "Neuroglycopenia". Which mimics TIA/ministrokes. And this is what happened in Oct 2020 - when i got to 3.9 mmol/L glucose at 5:00 am in the morning. Then was off to A&E with TIA symptoms. What muddled things was that I got a cardio marker come up, in A&E. So they kept me for observation 12 hours ! And then the marker came down.. Such fun to be in a COVID-designated Hospital A&E for 12 hours.

Usually the glucose morning reads are 7.0 mmol/L average. (>100 readings)

Hello you, ahh happy memories of Haytor and Mortonhampstead, used go to the festival every year when I lived at Newton Abbot. Camped at Haytor in my youth many times and used to swim in the natural pool behind it.

Done the ten tours many times got rescued a few times too. o_O We'll definitely meet up when it's safe Sue and anyone you want to tag along, not allowed to drive anymore so bus or you can be chauffeur if you got a motor? lunch on me but you cook breakfast. :D Take care stay safe. xx
 
@KARNAK did you see the programme Julia Bradbury walks in Devon & Cornwall... she did Haytor to Houndtor and then back around in a circle. Gave it away by showing the whole world the Quarry at Haytor. I take it that lunch will be from the ice cream van in the car park
 
No didn't see it but have done it too, you can have ice cream if you wish but was thinking more of Two Mile Oak in the summer sat outside watching the horses going over the jumps, magnificent, food is superb but you probably know that. xx
 
When this is all over I’d love to come out to The Country and meet up for walks where there be open skies and wild roaming sheep etc.

Your welcome any time to the English Riviera Colin, Paddington to Plymouth change at Newton Abbot straight through to Torquay and Paignton, if you get the right train it'll take you straight here.

A few others we can meet up with nice beaches and walks available grub to die for bring your own coffin.

Dartmoor on the door step bring your wellies loads of sheep about most of them are virgins, lots of local towns about in the countryside worth a visit.

Take care mate speak to you soon.
 
6.2 today, lowest reading this year despite a carb fuelled comfort food day of eating yesterday, even had some tomato soup which I haven’t had in 2 years. Want to stay in bed but have to go to work, even if it’s just for a few hours to get the urgent and cancer referrals done as there is only me for two days. Really don’t feel well enough to go in. I shall lock myself in my room and not come out though as certainly don’t want anyone else’s germs and they won’t want mine either.
Have a good day all xx
