Group 7-day waking average?

They have changed it to the Sure Smart Duo from the Gluco RX Q.
It’s made by Nipro and links in with the Diabetes:m app, via Bluetooth. So that it puts all data straight to phone.
The App also transfers data to the diabetes team, if I’ve set it up correctly!!!!!!!

They did mention basal / bolus regime but said as I’m only using 2 units in morning and 1 unit in evening it might be difficult to slit it over 5 injections. We will have to see what my body does!!

Sorry I don't know either of those meters lol

I don't see their point about the insulin though, you wouldn't necessarily be using 5 injections depending on which basal you were using and also if there was a meal time that didn't require insulin or as little as 0.5u then it wouldn't be an issue, for over 2 years I was only using 1u basal and 1u:20g or 1u:25g carbs depending on the time of day, oh how I miss those days! haha

Your doing great though! xx
 
6.6 this morning. Long old day 2 weeks to go to the holidays. I’m not counting really!

Wow! Ditto, Birdy Jan! Have you rebranded again!!!
Many congratulations! Great result! So pleased for you!
 
It’s another high five. 5.8 at 05:30.

Good luck to the England boys tonight. Let’s hope it doesn’t go to penalties, or even extra time - that’s too stressful.
 
Morning all. 9.7 for me. Plodding on hoping those numbers come down soon. I really am trying hard where the diet is concerned. Eating just as I did when I was first diagnosed.

I have received a letter to remind me that my diabetic annual review is pending. Urgh. Dreading finding out what my hba1c is at the moment.
 
Good morning. Dull and cool out there, just right for not getting too hot whilst walking. Got to do a longer walk this morning as we are celebrating our 36th wedding anniversary today. I am making a mixed grill for tea and we will have a chocolate eaclair too.

I just hope that my wife is ok today.

5.4 BG for me this morning.

Just as a point of interest/craziness.

We had our new kitchen installed by a well known kitchen installer company 6 years ago. Two of the cupboard doors developed faults and they agreed to replace the doors without fuss.

Two doors arrived. Two installers arrived. Sadly one of the doors was the wrong size.

I complained and to their credit they immediately ordered a new replacement door.

A new door arrived. The two installers arrived but they couldn't fit the new door because it was the wrong size again.

I emailed a complaint again yesterday and will have a 'chat' on the phone with them today.

Sad because it is this sort of thing that sets my wife off. She already thinks that someone has got into the house to damage the doors just to harm her!!!!

The company have the kitchen plans so there is no excuse for getting it wrong. The installers perhaps should have measured what was required on their first failed visit.

I have emailed the company with the correct door dimensions. So lets hope it is third time lucky.

Sorry for the rant but there is enough going on in my life without having to deal with this sort of thing.

However, today will be a very good day. I am determined that it will....

Six years ago?
 
Good morning 6.6 today

Have a great day everybody
 
Yes six years ago but the fault has been there for most of the time getting progressively worse.

I decided to contact the company because it was really upsetting my wife as the fault got worse and worse.

I guess that what warranties are for....
 
Morning all. 6.4 for me after an overnight correction.
@merrymunky, your levels are coming down. Keep up the good work.
@Gwynn Happy Anniversary, i hope you have a good day.
@Michael12421, i hope those levels are on their way back up now!
Have a good day everyone. I have work then 2 daughters and a son in law are coming for tea tonight.
 
Morning. Back to my usual after yesterday’s fluke HS. 6.5. Much better day today, the rain never stopped yesterday, at least it’s filled the water butt up, and watered the vegetables.

A walk into town this morning for Mr Eggy’s wig bashing, a spot of lunch and then a walk to visit one of his many brothers ( he’s got six) as him and his wife are leaving on Sunday to go to their home in France. They usually spend 9 months out of the year there, but with Covid and Brexit they haven’t been since last October. They’re only able to spend 90 days there now and need a visa which isn’t a simple process. They have to know the exact dates they are going and coming back and apply before they leave, then they have to go to their local town hall in France to get it approved. It’s a long way to drive if they say no! I think they are seriously thinking of selling up which is sad, as it’s a lovely house in a lovely place.

That’s our day planned, oh and of course the football tonight. I too hope it doesn’t go to extra time and penalties @HenryBennett. 😳

Congratulations on your wedding anniversary @Gwynn and Mrs Gwynn.

Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone. 🙂
 
Morning all. 🙂 5.4 here.

You’re doing really well @merrymunky - that’s what’s important. 🙂 My reviews always seem to appear when my BG’s been on its worst behaviour - Diabetic Sod’s Law, I call it.

Oh, Spain, what happened? So close...I don’t think my OH’s heart can cope with any more football!o_O
