Testing in public

[fairyhedgehog]

With regard to toilets, don't forget that people come out of the cubicles, turn on the tap with their contaminated hand to wash their hands. Then turn the tap off with their clean hands to restore the level of contamination on their hands. That's how bowls of nuts on the bar get contaminated, not because folk aren't washing their hands.

Is that too depressing?

Unless you wash the tap while you're washing your hands; or have a loo with motion-sensor taps; or use your arm to turn off the tap (possible with lever-style taps).

Glad you had such a nice meal Fairyhedgehog. You are doing well. If it helps you to know what effect food has had on your levels then do it and wherever you are comfortable. Probably true about contaminated taps etc but IMHO one can get too worried about these things. I always wash my hands before and after testing, but that's my way and I have never thought too much about it. 🙂
