Group 7-day waking average?

Very late posting. Got up at 5.30 to get ready for work, went downstairs, had to dash back up to the bathroom and felt so rough went back to bed. Have just got up, amazing. Feeling rotten can’t believe this cold is making me feel so bad. 6.6 today and am doing NOTHING today.
Have a good one all x
 
Morning all back after a break, a 7.2 this morning, a bit of a bumpy night, roast potatoes for dinner last night had me up to 14 during the night but by 8:00 I was back in range. I found the high after eating roasties happens 5 hours after eating them regardless of the Bolus I have when I eat. I wish the MM 670G had a dual Bolus delivery setting when it’s in auto mode.
Have a great day everyone!!
 
It’s a 6.4 for me!
@Robin I would love a skirmish with a pizza but still too scared to try the ‘devil’s’ food!!!
just sat in a log queue (or should it be log jam!!) for an hour but all sorted now so I won’t go cold this weekend!!
Take care today and hopefully no more ‘Midsomer Murders!’ Today!
The most exciting thing to happen in my village is when the ducks cross the road from the pond!!!
 
Good morning all - 6.4 this morning, happy with that.

Had a follow up with my Doctor just now. He wants me to up my Metformin to 4 tablets a day (from 2 atm) and to continue with the Gliclazide until mid April. I'm slightly concerned about staying on the Gliclazide, as my readings are pretty much within range and i'm concerned they will go to low. I raised this and my Doctor said 'keep an eye on my levels and if i get symptoms of a Hypo, get some sugar in quick [Coke Cola, Lucozade tablet, etc]'. Is this the normal course of action regarding my medication? I'm now worried about having a Hypo (never had one.... don't really want one !)

Have a great day all 🙂
 
8.6 this morning.
No snow left at all here. Birds in the garden are very happy and are in fine, fine voice!
Misty, damp and dank morning walk but I do love a trundle.
Sending healing thoughts to those under the weather today.
Stay safe all x

Yes it is known to cause hypos.
 
Late today I was 6.6 this am went a long drive to
finally get some Liv-Life bread suprised how small it is x
I don’t know where you live, or whether Brennan’s bread is available on the mainland, but they do a really really good low carb loaf. Regular size and both white and brown. I only ever bought the Liv-Life once and didn’t like it.

Just after midday BS 8.8

I think I have an ear infection: right ear & right side of the neck just under the chin is tender & sore; always seems to follow each asthma flare up!

Spent all day in bed snoozing off & on trying to get as much rest as possible!

Just up & about to eat 2nd meal of the day & remembered I haven’t posted yet!

I hope you all had a Good Day & I wish you all a Good Night! 😉
 
🙄 Morrison's guy phoned at 17:43 - hi, I'm in the next town, can be there in about 20 minutes, errm, no, your booked for 22:00-23:00 so was swiftly told nobody would be in until 10 to which he hmmd at and said ah, well... then ok, bye xx
 
I’ve just booked a vaccination at the Ulster Hospital for Sunday 31st. Yay. At the same time they’ve made the appointment for the booster in April. Bring it on.
 
Good evening 6.0 this morning, got out of hospital yesterday after 9 days in, got a nurse/carer for 10 days.

She`s called Marie and we had lunch together today had to put extra pillows in the bed,😉 had to ask her
to wear a mask because of the heavy breathing.o_O Nice to be posting after a few nights struggling nothing
to worry about they sent me a male nurse instead of a female went into anaphylactic shock sorry Colin but
he was gorgeous but couldn`t accept the battle of the bulge.
Depends how strict you are I suppose but being an insulin user and still in recovery from my ED I'd certainly only have 4 segments xx
Unlike @Kaylz I haven't got ED,😳 put that knife down @Kaylz😎

Congratulations on HS @Bloden & @HenryBennett.🙂

@Gruers & @SueEK take care {{{HUGS}}}.

Take care folks stay safe, got my eye on you @adrian1der🙂
