Good morning my lovelies! 🙂

Hope you all have a great day, I had a present bought for me which 'might' be arriving today, so I'll be staying in, in the hope that it does, very excited about it so watch this space :D

Pretty rubbish 15.7 this morning, I did have chemo yesterday but no extra steroids so it is what it is 😉

@Ditto hope you get your liver scan appointment soon - don’t drink too much beforehand, unless you’re in a speedy scanner.
@KARNAK thinking of you and sending hugs xx
 
Morning all. A decidedly average 6.4 today. Off to Mr Eggy’s 6 monthly cardiology appointment this afternoon. I think they’ll be happy with him. Wonder if they’ll sign him off and/or reduce some of his meds? We’ll see. Sorry to hear about your friend @KARNAK, just goes to show life is so precious make the most of it. And welcome back @Hazel, showing off with your house special! 😉 Have a great day everyone.

Hope all is good at Mr Eggy's appointment 🙂
 
Good morning everyone🙂

And commiserations to Ted on the loss of your friend. Take your time, we’ll understand.

And a special Hello to Hazel🙂 Good to see you back now that Scottish hibernation has finished. You didn’t get a mention on Springwatch, mind.:D

I woke on 7.2, in range all night but for that. BG test 6.7 (new sensor check). No problem, then. Apart from getting up, it took 5 minutes to straighten my legs for the upright position. Hope I’m never woken up by the fire alarm:D

Anyway, the weather is getting better for the Cricket World Cup. Starts tomorrow, so that’s the next few weeks sorted. If I’m a bit absent occasionally, that’ll be why. I can’t watch cricket on the iPad and write drivel on here simultaneously, which should come as relief🙂

Have a good day, folks. It’s Wednesday, so time to start winding down for the weekend.🙂
 
Thanks for the welcome back everyone.
I have been lurking though.

Been a tough few months. Following a really bad Hba1C at my last annual review, I asked if I could return to Lantus to help me get my numbers down. They don't prescribe it any more (I am in Scotland) they prescribed it's cheaper replacement Abasaglar. My numbers, as you saw, are down, but I was feeling awful. I was so confused, (more so than normal), extreme fatigue and sleepiness, I was just not functioning.

I sought out my DSN, explained, the upshot is I one of the 5% who cannot tolerate Abasaglar, who I put back onto Lantus.
Thank God, in the last week, I feel sooo much better, brighter, more with it.

On a happier note, on Easter Sunday, I was baptised in the local Baptist Church, full emersion - it was a truly joyous day

Thanks again, I will pop in from time to time
 
Afternoon all. 7.7 @ 8.19am which I'm very surprised at as I had a stupidly carby day yesterday, just got plain ol' fed-up of thinking I have to be good. :( Worry worry worry all the time, obsessed with food...either pigging or going without instead of being normal. Mind you, I've never been normal with food, always had a problem.

Welcome back Hazel, I missed your input. 🙂

@Ditto hope you get your liver scan appointment soon - don’t drink too much beforehand, unless you’re in a speedy scanner.

I don't think it's that kind of scanner is it? I think they just blob you with jelly and run a thingy around and about like when you are expecting except it's very disappointing because nothing is on the way! 🙂 Tickled you make me feel dead ashamed for moaning and groaning.

I’ve been terrible at checking in recently. 6.7 this morning for me. Had a busy day. It’s half term so today my husband and my mum took my nephew to the cinema. Hubby and I then went on to his parent’s house for tea. I also received my brand new iPhone (XS Max) and an currently setting it up. I also picked up a new pretty...a rose gold morganite and diamond ring. A good day I’d say!
 
Hi girls & guys, I know most of you will be tucked up by now or should be.🙂 Still one handed typing,🙄 operation in 3 weeks on my wrist,:( in the words of the great person Allah the consultant says its f***ked.😎 Thankyou for all your condolences, dear Tracy caught pneumonia, nice to see another friend/member back, Hazel!🙂 Going through the posts lots of members have problems hopefully nothing too drastic but you are all in my thoughts, congratulations on your Baptism Hazel prayers for you. Hope Mr eggyg`s review goes well @eggyg, nice ring @merrymunky, I`ll hang around for a while not ready to get my head down yet, hope you all sleep tight.🙂
 
Morning all, on this wet and extremely miserable day. Up with the larks this morning, woke at 4.30, got up at 5. A 6.2 today. Just chillin’ at the moment as have the 4 grandchildren coming for a sleepover later. Everyone also coming round for a meal to celebrate our middle daughter’s birthday, it isn’t until Tuesday but we will be away ( bad parents!) but hey, she’s 32 we weren’t planning on taking her to soft play and for an ice cream afterwards, I think she will be fine with her fiancé and daughter! Well, I’ve a lasagne and a rhubarb crumble to make so best get on. Have a fabulous day and I hope the weather is better where you are. 🙂
