You may find some in sports shops or even in bigger supermarkets at this time of year if you can’t find any online with free delivery?

4am 12.7 which I corrected.....6.50am HI on Libre and 23.2 on meter!! 8 units of bolus whacked in. Just what I need after spending Tuesday, Wednesday AND Thursday at eye department/eye casualty.
No urine ketones. I've only 3 ketone sticks so keeping them for when necessary.

Ugh! Sorry to hear this Amanda :( it’s the last thing you need. Glad that you are ketone free. Hope your BGs start cooperating soon. Maybe it’s the stress? Or check insulin/infusion site?

I don't have a sports shop and neither does the next town, they closed down a few years ago now, I don't have supermarkets that sell clothes either haha, I will keep an eye on the Lidl and Aldi offers though in the hope they get them in, the price of delivery wasn't bothering me as if there was a charge it was only like 50p, it was the fact I was needing them before the delivery estimate x
 
@Jeandp Hi jean, i do eat in the mornings but not until i get to work. I am on basal and bolus just can't seem to get it under control! 2 hypo's yesterday - one before lunch and one before dinner - and I woke up to 11.2 this morning.
 
Thank you Kaylz, Vince and Mike.
MIke you're right I think about stress plus I'm on steroid eye drops which I'm sure have some effect. I've done a full infusion set change. A dose equivalent to a third of my daily basal at around 6.30am has got me down to 16.8.

5.2 for me today after eating a whole tub of Philadelphia before bed, so pleased with that.

I used to wear trainers without socks all the time, but learned my lesson doing that.

That's okay Amigo...put it to one side & address it when you feel up to it...it's not massively important for the next few days...surprisingly moderate in view of the circumstances...good luck with the appointment.

Bruce only brought back tops last week, I ordered a pair of leggings and a t-shirt dress of eBay the other night, about time I tried to make myself feel good by looking nice rather than bobbing about in clothes that are too loose fitting! :D xx

Your a bloke, it's completely different, baggy clothes I don't mind at all but when your wearing things that's 2+ sizes too big for you, you certainly don't feel attractive or good about yourself xx

06:12 BS 6.4. The lowest BS I’ve had in a while! It’s a chillyish, grey morning & there’s not a single peep from a birdie! Moody birdies getting up late? :D

Off to have some breakfast! 🙂

I’m taking it easy today & not going out! Yesterday’s trip to town was exhausting & my energy levels are not up there yet! But, got everything done that I needed to do A few days back on the iron tablets & I’ll be a recharged bunny ready to go! 🙂

Wishing you all a relaxing weekend with no numpty moments! :D 🙄, with a whistle!

Edited after breakfast to correct typos! Dear me! I’m becoming like Vince! :D 🙄, with a whistle!

Good Morning Everyone.

Codefree say 4.5
At 5 am
Taken when up.
After some heavy drinking lastnight.
Beer which I don't normally drink.
Staff party and I got involved in a drinking competition.
Took a reading, not without difficulty, when I staggered home and t was 5.1 and I had eaten quite a lot.


Have a great day all.
