Group 7-day waking average?

SueEK said:
OMG I should be ashamed 😳- have just finished sorting out my wardrobes and have 5 bags of clothes going to charity that no longer fit, why did I have so many? 🙄I’m not good at throwing clothes away but they are never going to fit again. Have loads of designer dresses (bought from EBay, not new) so someone should be happy with them. :D If nothing else this lockdown will give us more space indoors 🙂 🙂

are your charity shops open yet? xx
 
No but on our local Facebook group someone is collecting for a local charity when it’s all over, they obviously know that people are having a turn out. Hope they have a large storage area as loads of people replying.

didn't know you were the Facebook sort lol xx
 
I use it for renting my caravan out. Loads of things you have to avoid on it but it is useful for what I need it for x
 
A 5.9 for me, same as yesterday. Not sure how as a friend dropped me off me some lovely home made fruit pie yesterday which just called to me with too much persuasion!

A sunny bank holiday Monday stuck in again. Just wish this lock down would end but the shielding advice is another 3 weeks minimum and probably longer :(

Ah that‘s really tough @Amigo. Do you have any outdoor space or a garden you can use? Or is that too risky or difficult for you?

I do have a garden everydays but ironically I can’t have too much sun on the cancer treatment I’m on so I don’t really sit out but I’m fortunate to have enough space around me. Some people must feel so hemmed in shielding in cramped accommodation.
 
Good afternoon folks on a glorious day 7.1 had a bad hypo night so pigged out on JB`s, 3 pasties and a cornetto,😱 (not) but wish. Been over to the beach this morning nearly went in for a swim but the tide was so far out I would have to self isolate and I don`t speak French.:D Just come in to check that my feet haven`t got trench foot or they have just gone overly brown or a darker shade of black and of course to post to you wonderful people.o_O🙂

Another HS @MeeTooTeeTwo well done.🙂

Hope you enjoyed your Greeky evening @eggyg?🙂 1590408214844.png

I bagged up a load of unfitting clothes @SueEK, only trouble was I was wearing them.😱

Take care @Amigo thinking of you {{{HUGS}}}.

Speak with you all later folks, take care stay safe.🙂
 
Hello all. Over 9 again, consistently high these days, not good, can't keep to the low carb. Stay safe all. 🙂
 
05:13 BS 9.0 :confused: So, so smile! To be expected really!🙄

Yesterday being a Bank Holiday I was in a bit of a panic for a while there & considered calling “Doctor on Call” as nobody there at the Health Centre!o_O After all the batch cooking in the morning I had a doze, as I’m still easily tired & a bit short of breath just before 10:00. Woke up choking, coughing with lots of phlegm in a full blown asthma attack!😱 I implemented my asthma attack plan & had 10 puffs of Ventolin & it barely gave me any relief as I was still struggling to breathe. So, I waited about 7 minutes, suppose to be 15, & 10 puffs of Ventolin again. This time I was almost there & leaned back on my pillow in relief! Took about another 10/15 minutes before my breathing eased & my heart rate to calm down! It was about another half hour for my throat & sinuses to clear a bit as they had become really bunged up while I was horizontal in bed asleep!o_O I can tell you I ALMOST did call DOC but, decided to try the 2nd lot of Ventolin & see as I REALLY didn’t want to go into A&E again!😱

It was just past midday so, tested 12:03 BS 12.7 had my meds & added +2 correction to Novorapid & ate lunch. My after lunch reading was still high BS 12.3 & dinner was only a bit better: before BS 10.9 & after 10.3!🙄 I forgot to test when I had midnight Levemir & I’m not really surprised I woke this morning still a bit high after all the inhalers I had yesterday! I took both inhalers, Clenil & Ventolin just before bed, after dinner, & ended up taking 4 puffs of each. I made another small change in my routine again & taken allergy tablet when I got up this morning as it was already too late yesterday by midday, with my other meds, & my sinuses were bunged up: being horizontal on the pillow exacerbated everything!😱

Anyways, an early Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

PS:-Did my qualifying round just before bed last night & already know I qualified on -12 for 9 holes as I’m still in 5th place with only 4 to finish: top 10 make it out of 20; round finishes at 07:45 & official results at 08:00!🙂
 
Morning all.

It's a 6.3 for me this morning and the shakes are back lol
 
6.95 is my seven day waking average, a high of 7.7 and a low of 6.2.

generally I’m pleased but I had one bedtime reading of 15.1that was completely out of sync with the whole of Mays results which are less than 10, and mostly less than 7.

back to work after the BH weekend
 
Morning all,
Congrats @Michael12421 on your HS!
Not so for me with a 6.1...
@Lanny you are really going through it but staying positive, well done for that and hope all settles down soon.
Shaping up to do the vacuuming later before another day in paradise.

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning all, 4.9 here, think my libre is still reading a shade low.
Am expecting a phone call from the diabetes hospital clinic this morning. I asked for a referral last November, and after months of pestering my surgery nurse, she managed to do one in February. So then the soonest appointment was end of May, and of course it was cancelled as soon as Covid reared it’s ugly head. So I got a phone call out of the blue from a DSN at the hospital on Friday, saying they were doing telephone clinics and asking if I wanted to be rung by a doctor. This is all in pursuit of getting my Libre prescribed, so we shall see!
 
Morning

6.0 for me this morning

Stay safe and enjoy your day my lovelies
xx
 
Morning all and 2.6 for me although it didn't feel like 2.6 and sure enough other side of the room scan was sensor unavailable. fingerprick 5.5 and sensor sprang to life with a 6.5 just when I thought it had died a day early.

Any way it's another day at the office so have a good day everyone.
 
5.4 this morning.

Good to hear you have your appointment coming @Robin .
Congrats on the Hs @Michael12421 . Nice one after the wobbles with the change in basal insulin
I hope you have a better day today @Lanny.

Another sunny day with a walk planned, as well as a socially distanced meet up, in a remote place.

Have a good day one and all.
