6.8 after a night of hot flushes keeping me awake, I thought I had done with them.
Damn things keep returning just when we think we’ve cracked it

That’s so true. 10 years on HRT and still get them, just not as bad but still enough to stop me sleeping. I don’t have to get up through the night and rest my head, body, arms on the cold bathroom tiles anymore!

Delighted to say that after suffering with them for 5 years, I started on HRT patches last autumn and the effect was almost instantaneous and miraculous in putting a stop to them as well as not needing the loo through the night anymore either. Total bliss to get an undisturbed night's sleep, every night! Managing to eek the patches out to one every 7 days instead of 4 as not sure when I will get a repeat prescription for them with the shortage but still doing the job well at that time scale for me.
I can so relate to getting up in the night and lying on cold tiles, even in the winter, then next thing you are shaking with the cold! I so do not miss that! HRT is beyond amazing!
 
I thought I had passed it twice and they returned again, hot flushes and night sweats, surprisingly no change in mood but no they came back to taunt me. Seemed to have passed it again and hoping beyond hope that that’s it now - pretty pleeease 🙂🙂
 
Hola all. Can't be bothered measuring when I'm up too early at 4 due to stupid eating late the night before. That's it I'm going low carb healthy like the people in the menu thread, it's rubbing off on me. It's persisting down here so I'm glad they've got a wash'ouse at my flats with huge dryers. Apparently the virus has now reached Manchester. Are we doomed? I can't shake this other thing we've had all this year, don't want something else to worry about. :( Sneezing and snuffling and chomping Strepsils. 🙄
 
Oooops Bexlee, your meter playing silly b's? Hope your bgs stabilise as the day progresses.

I think it’s Monday morning effect! It settled down to a more normal and steady 6.0 by 930 and has been in range all day.
Also new sensor day and they’re reading the same which is good 🙂

Good morning. My cold said goodbye yesterday 🙂. As colds go it was pretty pathetic, a few sneezes, felt a bit off and sleepy , my BGs didn’t notice aand it only managed to visit for a couple of days, don’t get me wrong I am highly delighted It scarpered without overstaying it’s welcome or causing havoc.

I hope you all have a good day.

Oops forgot what I came here for :D. 7.1.
 
Good morning All, and it's cold/Wet and windy again here but my reading is 6.6 so now to start the day
 
Good morning all. I haven’t been checking in much lately but work reporting a house special today! A lovely 5.2.
Hope you are all well.
 
Morning all !
Congratulations @merrymunky on your HS!!!
Me today a 6.3...
Still experimenting with food... I think on balance, I like it!

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning All. 7.3 this morning. Have a great day.
 
Up bright and early this morning. Well early anyway. Off shortly for my follow-up colonoscopy. :(
When I got the call, I was told I had "an appointment for my camera test." Sounds really glamorous and Hollywood, doesn't it? "All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up." 😛
Won't go into the gory details of last night's taking of the liquid prep. Suffice to say, the phrase "eye of a needle" flitted across my mind many many times. 🙄
My only advice to anybody who may have to experience the same in the future is, "KEEP THE TOILET SEAT DOWN!!"
It saves vital buttock-clenching seconds when you make that desperate dash to be seated. 😱

Wish me luck.
Oh, and my BG this morning was 4.4 - which was nice.:D

Have a safe day.

Good morning

Have had a thumping headache since yesterday morning, stupid yelping little westie in the next closey doesn’t help either, don’t understand why people persist in getting dogs when their just going to leave them alone all day yelping/barking to disturb everyone else!

Anyways I'm joining @MeeTooTeeTwo with a 4.4 although mine was glucose chew induced as woke to 4.2 so it didnt do much anyway! Off out to sign on this afternoon, fingers crossed I can get cotton wool pads, lens wipes and I think that's all I require, even more hopeful my mum can get toilet roll! Although we do have a few rolls left at least

Have a lovely day folks
Xx
