Had an appointment with the consultant on Friday. Only a 35 min wait this time!! But still no apology for the delay though.
Anyway, my Hb1ac has dropped to 8.4 so am pleased it's going in the right direction!!
I've gained 1.5lbs though - so need to up my exercise!!
Am struggling with inserting my canulas though and he didn't really give me any help on that. So, looks like I'll have to go back to the old Rhianna/Eminem song and insert it to that! (Pity my poor hubby - he hates that song after I used it to inject to!!) - the last few have been painful and bled quite badly - which then makes it harder to do the next one. :(
Ah well, baby steps!!
 
Glad to hear the HbA1c is dropping 🙂 Hope you can get the canulas sorted out soon.

p.s. I think I would feel the same about Rhianna and Eminem! 😱
 
Well my goal is to get my hba1c in the 8's so well done you. As the canulas go have you tried different size's I have to use 8mm on my tummy and 6mm on my legs, when i put the 8mm in my legs, it hurts and bleeds. May be worth when putting an order in to see if the can give you a few samples.
