Good morning folks a nice 1.7😱 @ 0700 rechecked it, still the same. The only tell tale sign was sweating and feeling very hot, 4 Gluco Tabs and a few digestive biscuits managed to get it up to 3.6 half an hour later. I`ve not posted for a few days spent a day in hospital right foot decided to change colour and double in size, colour nearly back to normal but still swollen. Internet was down yesterday 😡 major talks with provider who assured me it won`t happen again, we`ll see 🙄.
Hope everybody is as well as they can be under their own circumstances, take care and enjoy your weekend 🙂.

My niece used to take her duvet off the bed & used it to toboggan down the stsirs. AND of course, whatever big sis did, little brother did too, to my great amusement when I used to babysit them as kids! I had great fun telling her wedding guests that that little innovation !

Glad to hear that the foot is returning to normal 🙂 1.7 is 0.2 lower than my lowest ever, and I was shaking like a leaf and pouring with sweat - I knew I was hypo but 'just wanted to finish what I was doing' 😱 Hypo brain! 🙄 Glad you managed to treat it, it would be worth, if possible doing a couple of 3 am tests to make sure you're not dropping too low through the night and perhaps reducing your insulin. If you're recovering from an illness or infection your levels can be a bit unpredictable. Hope you are back up to full strength very soon 🙂

So sorry to hear this Ted, poor you but good to hear the worst is over. You take care now & look after yourself.

Hello all. I've been in the lower 7s all week so I'm over the moon. Plus one afternoon I was in the lower 5s, so ecstatic. Mind you. I'd had a mega chippy due to being with family, out visiting, so I'd probably gone hugely high and then plummeted! Still, it was nice to see a 5, long time since I've had one. 🙂
Can I just ask about the Chilli Baked Spud? That's one of my fave cafe meals and I thought I couldn't have it any more, because I read that baked spuds are the worst thing 'we' can eat? Is this wrong then?

04:29 BS 6.2.🙂 Didn’t sleep as much yesterday & even spent a few hours AWAKE! AND I came up with a solution to ease the inflammation!🙄 The left side of my face is a bit swollen at times & the slight ache dosen’t really count as PAIN & painkillers, paracetamol anyway, dosen’t work on that. Although, aspirin might but, don’t want to be guzzling down painkillers for a protracted amount of time! So, what is good for swelling?:ice!🙄 Used an ice pack, ones you freeze yourself usually for keeping picnics etc. cool, wrapped it in a muslin face cloth, not to get a cold burn, & slepped it on! Ahhhh!😛 Did the trick & worked a treat! BS yesterday was a bit up & down with some 9’s because of the growing discomfort, from inflammation, until I tried the ice in the evening & I’ll continue to apply it when I need to!🙂
Will try 14 units Novorapid for breakfast then, 12 & 10, depending on the meter, & haven’t decided, YET, on midday Levemir: ice solution, if needed, for discomfort? 🙄
Top of the morning to you all!😉 Oooh! I’ve gone Irish this morning!😛 Just off to brekkie!😉 Like a little Irish leprechaun, with a lilting swing, hop, skip & a jump!😱😛

Good morning mates🙂
It’s great this morning, wind and sideways rain. Reminds me of Mull. Well, not completely because the paper arrived this morning. On Mull, I guess, the ferries won’t be running so I wouldn’t be able to to get grumpy at the behaviour of grown ups in Londonstan.
Anyway, I woke up on 8.2, that’ll be the ice cream
I’ve decided I will go the grandson’s birthday party, followed by Lunch at The Eagle. That should give me enough energy to get up the stairs when I get back. That means tomorrow will be a write off, but who cares?🙂
I don’t fancy going downstairs on a tray, though thanks for the thought. The stairs are concrete. No offence taken, WL, if I can’t laugh at comments like that I’d be a right misery
It’s not the going down, it’s the coming up. (That’s a direct quote from the Kama Sutra)🙄
Have a good day, everyone. I will, if I don’t get blown over in the wheelchair, but if I do, be assured I will post a selfie🙂

I haven’t had many baked potatoes since prescribed insulin. But it wasn’t a huge one and can’t give accurate result, because I had a hypo almost after last mouthful.

Listen to your body, Carol. If you’re not enjoying crisps, that’s a signal.( Or maybe you were eating Walkers rather than Seabrooks). That’s what I find, anyway.🙂
They were walkers, left over Xmas stock. I like seabrooks but couldn’t keep them in house. Will give walkers ones away. I would rather have a wee box of Graze nuts and less carbs as well
