18/05/18
05:49 (BS 6.4) 6 units Novorapid. Breakfast:- 200g microchips, 200g baked beans, 50g grated candian vintage cheese & 150ml pressed pear juice.

Had a little too much for breakfast & took a morning walk of about 2000 steps.

07:01 (BS 10.2) a little high but, just about alright given that my target, set by hospital DSN, are less than 10 two hours after eating!

About 09:30 went into town to do the errands I didn’t do yesterday & walked about 6000 steps. Was exhausted at the end! Called 2 taxi firms at 10:30 & they had bookings until after 12:00.

Tried to walk home but, my back was killing me & I could barely move my legs. Stumbled to the bus stop shelter & sat down around 10:45. Hoped there would be a bus at 11:20!

That bus service HAD been every 2 hours with one at that time but, had been severely cut, due to lack of passengers. My hopes were answered as 2 more people came to get it around 11:10. It was 10 minutes late & came at 11:30. It was only another 600 yards to home but, I could hardly walk at all by the time I sat down! My back had recovered somewhat & I think I could have walked home but I’d already waited so long for the bus! Then again, my back & legs could get stiff again on the way back! The bus dropped me off & I walked the last 750 steps down the lane to get home!

My limit seems to be around 3500-4000 steps, according to the 3 days this week I’ve been out! Beyond that I start to get tired & exhausted! I think my neuropathy affects my spine & the nerves in my legs when I get beyond a certain point! Not great to push myself THAT hard!

Will have to wait another few days for the iron tablets to take effect before I go out to town again!

11:39 (BS 9.4) 6 units Novorapid (+2 as the last time I had this sandwich it raised my BS) 29 units Levemir & all other meds. Lunch:- shop bought chicken, stuffing & cranberry sandwich on white bread, bottled water.

Fell asleep from exhaustion!

18:18 (BS 6.7) 5 units Novorapid Dinner:- lamb casserole, 4 steamed new baby potatoes about 200g, cup tea twinnings buttermint with 30ml longlife almond milk & 0.5tsp of honey.

Was in two minds about having the normal dinner dose of 4 or the sleep/wake dose of 6 & split the difference! Will see what happens?

20:21 (BS 7.5) good instinct! 6 units would have been too much. I didn’t sleep so long this time.

22:03 (BS 7.3) after bath & going to bed soon!
