WTF is this? Super high and messed up readings!!! Rage bolus and marching around now

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@GbdocTChost A6. Out out out. It is me now and I don't care. Show the world my tech and that I have T1D. It happened once to me that I inspired a 7 year old to not cover up her libre with a jumper. It was a hot summer day too. If I can inspire more, I'll keep doing it!

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@GbdocTChost A5. Rarely but I like the idea. I have a few Halloween libre stickers I'm excited to use soon! I also dressed my pen recently!

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@GbdocTChost A4. I have various bands for the libre to keep it attached. Lots of kinesiology tape too. Adhesive remover spray for the sticky stuff and barrier spray to help stick!

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@GbdocTChost A3. None really. Blood spots on clothes or losing a libre while taking off a tshirt

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@john_spenceley Sometimes that's a good thing though! Prevents a drop while asleep?

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Why am I so thirsty? Checks sugars, ah yes...forgot to take insulin with my dinner

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@GbdocTChost A2. Only libre2 and a phone needed for me really. It's pain if in work meetings and it looks like I'm on my phone.

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@GbdocTChost A1. Fast acting pen in my pocket with a preloaded needle (I know, I know!). Everything else in a bum bag but worn across my chest! I have a more fancy bag for better occasions.

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

I bought some mega super sour cherry sweets. Not really sour! Was expecting to be blown away. Doh

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@arealgeography Nice way to put it

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Managing people is a pain in the backside! There, I said it 😁. I actually think managing T1D is easier.

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Everything is good apart from BG control. It's got worse, from 42 to 47, but still in good range. Wanna get back though and not slip more.

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Just looked onto my NHS app and can see my latest blood yest results. Forgot they show them now!

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Really enjoy caching up on @GbdocTChost on a Thursday. Always struggle to attend live.

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Back to normal now. Covid knocked me out. Took all my energy.

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Metallic taste? Things not smelling normal? Yup....its covid 🙈🤷‍♂️🤪

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@GKahler2 All good thanks. I survived!

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Eye Screening went OK today. Always forget to bring my sunglasses for the dilated eyes.

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

@MellitusStreet I might have to move back to Ireland!

[Type1Dar @type1d3]

Diabetic review tomorrow with my GP...eye screening the day after....meds review few days after and I still question why it can't all be done on the same in one appointment? Surely it's more efficient all round, not just for me? #t1d
