Aww that's so lovely, no problem and thank you! 🙂 xx
 
5.5 for me this morning. 🙂

Stay safe and well and dry.

Morning all. A nice round 6 for me. Wet and wild and dark here too, that would explain my tardiness, woke up thought it was 5ish and went back to sleep! Think it must have been nearer 8! Whoops! Never mind nowhere to go and no one to see. A curl up on the sofa reading my new Peter James sort of day methinks. Have a good day and if you do have to venture out, don’t forget your Pac-a-mac! :D
 
And a 6.0 for me too this morning.

I say “morning” but there’s no way you could tell what time of day it is because there’s zero sign of arguing even vaguely resembling sun poking out to say Hi today! I’d bet if Gene, Debbie and Donald were in my kitchen even they’d be grumbling about the weather today!
 
Good morning same as most places here today,:( its stopped raining but very windy.
Not much to report 4.5 upping last nights Basal got me into better figures, just reduce it
by one unit tonight should put me nicely in the 5`s.🙂

That was a nice thing to say to @Kaylz @Bloden.🙂

Hope you all stay out of the weather, take care stay safe.🙂
 
12:24 BS 9.8 :confused: Oh dear, 9’s seem to be the new norm for me at the moment AND getting up late! Must try & stop the slide!😳🙄 Woke just before 07:45 this morning shivering with cold under my duvet, the wind & rain was back as I heard it lashing the windows & switched on the electric heater before dropping off again! Was still a bit groggy when midday alarm went off but, got moving, picked up my post with another QVC parcel with a little bolero in it, only 3 more to go, & lunch is in the oven, basa foil steamed & sauté potatoes.😛 Will finish posting then, take my meds, midday Levemir & breakfast dose of Novorapid which is now only 20 units: my NR doses have come down across the board now that metaformin is back in my routine & I’m eating less; it REALLY does curb the appetite a bit! o_O So, my doses are now 8 units less across the board & only the waking BS has gone up to the 9’s the last few days: is THAT the reason why; I wonder?🙄

Anyways, I’ll have to go Australian today to wish you all a G’day Mates!😉

Need to get a wriggle on for meds etc before I get my lunch out of the oven!🙄

Interesting @SueEK you talk of astigmatism, I used to have that but went and had a check for lazer vision which they said they could do as astigmatism is one of the easiest to fix. Had it done more than 12 years ago and only wear low strength readers (because of my age!) Obviously having just bought glasses now is not the time, but perhaps next time round it might be worth looking into, the test is usually free.

Thanks Snowwy but I have already been told my astigmatism is not suitable for laser or any form of surgery. I think I’m just weird lol x

Usually you can't get in to a hospital for a booked appointment without the necessary authorization papers so I was expecting a bit of trouble. The paperwork was just delivered to me by motorcycle courier!

Ah thats good @Michael12421 , hopefully you'll be in and out and they can sort out the problem quickly.

I’ll be moving away from Specsavers having been satisfied for many years. I’m hoping there won’t be an argument when I ask for a refund. £287 for a pair of glasses that give me eye strain and a headache isn’t acceptable. I’ve been there five times now to try to get it righ

Just be firm. If they’re not right you should be entitled to a refund

Keep me updated how your chat with the DSN goes if you don't mind my lovely xx

Hi @Kaylz. So..my DSN rang me today. She agreed that the levels were completely out of character and also that where they were going up in between meals indicated that i needed more Tresiba. I said that i had increased it by 1 last night and would see how it goes over the next few days but i was worried as the other week when i tried to increase i had an overnight hypo. She said that might have been caused by the heat and to carry on trying 14u atm. If i start to have problems let her know and we can talk about what to do eg. half units. Levels been a bit better today though still had a few highs so hopefully as the Tresiba kicks in things will start to settle down again. Starting back to work next week so things will probably change again . I hope you've had a good day today. X
 
Morning all,
A 5.9 this morning.
Grandparent duties today...
Here he is with pooh bear toast!

Blessings Snowwy
