Group 7-day waking average?

Surfaced from Tuesdays chemo, 13.9 this morning but all over the shop with the industrial quantities of steroids.
Going for lunch with a friend today but brain mets making me walk like I’m drunk already so may be refused entry o_O
Have a good day folks xx

Morning all and HS for me. Flatishfish overnight with the merest hint of an inverted washing line.

A flatfish AND an HS, @khskel!😛 That website performance testing’ll be a doddle if you’ve already achieved the first two in your sleep.:D

Morning all.🙂 8.2 here...that’ll be the too-mediocre-to-be-that-expensive meal we had out last night. (That’s one thing I miss about Spain - the cheap and excellent restaurant meals). But the waitress was very nice - hubby was certainly smitten if his tip was anything to go by!🙄 Blondes may not have more fun, but they get bigger tips.😱🙂

Have a fab holiday, @Stitch147.
 
08:49 BS 7.8. A wee bit higher than usual. That’ll be the wee spoonful, or 2, of the leftover chicken curryI had leftover from dinner at the midnight alarm. I’d dished up too much & left about a third of it on the bedside table & I smelt it when the Levemir alarm woke me up!😳

It’s just so sunny & bright oustside my window & the only thing missing is little birdies singing!🙂 You know what? I think I’ll reheat that homemade chicken curry for breakfast!😛 Have a wonderful day folks full of bright, bright sunshine inside & out!😉
 
Good morning pals🙂

I woke with 5.9, which is nice. I’ve also just been handed a box of three Libre sensors by the pleasant ParcelForce man, so after this morning’s shower I’ll be human again.:D

I was rambling on yesterday about the problems getting out of bed, and how that was fixed by CBD. Well, that came at a cost. That muscle spasticity is the only thing that allows me to stand upright, with a locked and unbending left leg. So yesterday was a real struggle getting around. So today, similar start but no CBD, so I can stand up but it hurts to move around. Not a lot, though, just that post exercise ache magnified. Choices, eh, life’s full of them.🙄

There’ll be other big choices after the shower. Right arm or left for the sensor? Blue nail polish or green? Tights or stockings?

On such decisions, worlds turn:D

Have a good day everyone 🙂
 
Good morning 7.1 after spending most of yesterday in A&E.:( Just got to furniture store when I got a call from GP, please present yourself to A&E immediately Physio wasn`t happy with the pain and movement in my neck after lasts weeks fall.😳 Anyway the fast version of my journey through A&E, taxi, hospital reception, Triage, Doc, x-ray on neck, back to doc (he`s not happy) C.T. scan, back to Doc he says fractured and chipped bone in neck, he spoke with some sort of bone Dr because he was unsure if it was safe to release me so after a little discussion I got a taxi home.😛

They're being cautious @KARNAK🙂 I would be too until I hear back from the bone Dr. Please be careful!😉

When I sustained my trampolining injury last summer, 2018, my GP surprised me by ordering a spinal X-ray. But, that X-ray actually showed up a congenitial abnormality in my neck: the C1 & C2 bones in my neck were deviated from birth. It the type of thing that people can go through their life not knowing they have, unless of course it's severe enough to show up right away!🙄

It was a shock but, explained a lot of things. It was the second similar type of injury to my upper arm that I'd sustained: possibly due to me turning around too fast & my upper arm & shoulder compensating for my neck. * I remember doing that a few weeks prior to the trampoline incident, which just aggravated the injury. I don't remember if that was the case the first time but, it seems the most likely cause!🙄

Physio was equally concerned with strengthening my neck as getting movement back to my arm. Being aware of the abnormality now, I'm conscious of not making sudden, fast turns now!🙄

Edited to add:- *I remember doing that a few weeks prior to the trampoline incident, which just aggravated the injury. I don't remember if that was the case the first time but, it seems the most likely cause!🙄

Good morning 🙂 7.4 for me after a 7 hours in bed/1 hour of sleep night :( I have no idea why I couldn't sleep.

It is horrible when you can’t sleep.
 
Good morning folks. 4.9 this morning, that’s after a bedtime bowl of defrosted strawberry’s as I was only 5.2 .
Hope you all have a good day. The weekend is nearly here .
 
Morning all, 5.7 here. My numbers always look better on the Libre, not because it’s reading low, but because I grab the reader and scan as soon as the alarm goes off, whereas with a finger prick I have to get my eyes open, switch the light on, fumble with the kit etc, so I tend to put it off, and meanwhile my BG starts rising.
 
Morning all.🙂 A round-bellied 8.0 here.😛 Didn’t need that bedtime JB after all.🙄

What a filthy day - filthy in Pembrokeshire Welsh is slabog, which sums it up nicely...ych a fi, mae’n slabog heddiw (yuk, it’s a filthy day today). But the dogs still want a walk of course.:confused:😛
