Best Wishes

@Baz. what brilliant news! And a HS too!!! 🙂 :D:D I’m really pleased for you.

Morning folks. 5.6 here. 🙂

I really must ring my Welsh buddy today and have a chat in Cymraeg. Having a Welsh-speaking hubby often feels like a hindrance - eg I say: Oes moron yn yr oergell? He says: I don’t say it like that...end of conversation in Welsh. So, I really must ring my Welsh buddy and practise!:D

Morning all, 7.5 here, spent last week hypoing, this week I can’t keep my numbers down. Will crack and put on a new Libre soon. Abbot are sending a replacement for the one that switched itself off early.
 
Morning

Well Bruce got the remaining stitches removed yesterday morning and no antibiotics needed for now, got a fresh dressing on and 4 to take home (strange considering he got 1 to cover 11 days when it was more likely to ooze!) and a fresh splint as well

Anyways its a 6.2 for me on yet another cooler and VERY misty day

Decided I'd start logging my weekly insulin use and waking averages in my log book so did last weeks last night and will get the last almost 8 months worked out at some point! lol, so last weeks stats were
Waking Average - 5.6
Total Insulin - 169U
Bolus Total - 57U
Basal Total - 112U

Have a nice day and stay safe folks
xx

Thsts fantastic news @Baz. Well done
 
Must have been a dodgy battery as it’s it’s working fine again today.
5.3 this morning 🙂
 
Well, its cloudy but bright here this morning. Have put the washing out in the hope that it will dry before the next bout of rain. Its a disappointing start to the morning for me as its 8.1, went to bed on a 5.4. Oh well...at least its still in range.
@Kaylz, i'm glad Bruce has had his stitches out.
Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning all, 8.2 for me today.
 
08:45 BS 8.4 :confused: So, So smile! & only slept after 05:30 so, just a quick toilet break really & see where I’m at before going back to bed?🙄

Tesco shop at 14:00 to 15:00 so, have alarms set, midday for meds & 13:45 to be up for shopping!🙄 Too tired for a long post now & will post later but, yesterday was a very long, uncomfortable & sometimes downright painful day!:confused: NOT going to frown but, can’t help a so, so smile!

A very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day!😉

Getting some more z’s after half dose Novorapid & half oatcake as I sleep! Eyes closed with a stream of z’s emoji!
 
6.2 for me this misty moisty morning 🙂
Excellent news @Baz. - glad you're still going to be on here. And congrats to you and @Madeline on your cinq point deuxs
Stay safe and well everybody.

Well, so much for THAT plan to get more z’s. My gut is waking up & just got a call from my GP practice. 🙄

Yesterday started quite well & I remember feeling rather jaunty! But, it turned out to be a very long day of 2 distinctive halves. First half was lunch, got up just before midday & too late for breakfast, followed by usual Laxido 2 hours later. So, first half of the day was rather good with my biggest & easiest no 2’s yet just after getting up!🙂

Then, the second half of the day after lunch & Laxido my digestion hit another pause, a very big one as it turned out, & I battled intermittent bouts of discomfort & towards the late evening I finally threw in the towel & had another Laxido. It helped but, only slowly & eventually slept around 05:30, last night I remember looking at my watch.:( Can’t help that rare pain induced frown, I’m afraid.😳

I was going to see what today brings before trying to see GP tomorrow if necessary?🙄 Now, my actually named GP, as opposed to another one, called & said it’s fine to take metaformin while I’m taking 2 sachets a day maintenance dose as, I ordered more insulin last night & said I still hadn’t restarted metaformin! So, it’s been confirmed then, as I was thinking after yesterday, maintenance dose is 2 sachets of Laxido a day & nt just the 1 I’d been taking.😳🙄

So, I’ll wait another 90 minutes or so for the half oatcake before I take 2 sachets! Actually, after just looking at my watch, that’s midday Levemir & meds time so, about 14:00 then because I leave it about 2 hours before & after food & oral meds!🙄 And we’ll see what today is like? My named GP is on tomorrow so, I can speak to her if necessary then?🙄

Actually, looking at my watch again, I will take Laxido at 11:30 & have meds etc. at 13:30, a bit late, to get the laxatives in sooner!🙄

OK, probably can’t sleep now but, will try & rest with my eyes closed otherwise I’ll go blind from tiredness!o_O

What‘s the range?

If freesia is on about the Libre then the range is likely to 4-9 or 4-10 but we all have it set to our own targets so I'm just using a standard what a lot of people set their target range to xx
