Activity – lizz – Shoot Up or Put Up

lizz commented on the post, The diabetic pregnancy survival guide 12 years ago

I think ‘active insulin on board’ is my downfall – human actrapid has a fairly long action and it’s doing my joints in and pork is even longer. I’ve noticed the BS I feel fabulous at if it’s stable is 6. I […]

Crikey, 4 seems so low! In all the blod tests on ‘normal’ people I’ve done (surprising how many want this) only one person has been 4 or lower and that was a stressed nurse who was 3.5. The rest have been between […]

Good luck, Alison! I wish I could start again!

You might be interested in this, my son was born with an infection (or got one soon after birth) and this could have helped him. It’s a Ted lecture. no drugs or […]

Quite. There are no side effects – although other effects are calmness, happiness, general well-being. Most shocking to me is for example the fact I can view my husband stacking the dishwasher incorrectly as a […]

Well, now I’m going to sound flaky. But I’m as cynical as the next person, honest.

My son got agoraphobia due to stress at uni, and his counsellors at uni told him to try Transcendental Meditation. WHAT!!!? i […]

This text is Arial. I LOVE fonts. I’m just as sad as you.

Hooray! So glad all is well. And breastfeeding cuts down the likelihood of later diabetes, so nothing could be better. I had to make sure I had loads of stuff by me to eat/drink though!

Little bit disappointed […]

Oooh, now if it was a TV ref., my fave shows… gosh poor child. Frasier. Or Big Bang. Or possibly Niles, Ros, Maris, Daphne, Lilith (actually, quite like that one) Sheldon, Leonard, Penny, Howard or Rajesh…

LOL! My daughter loves her name. We were very careful, I have always been interested in names since Bunty (there you go, that dates me) or maybe it was Jacky? gave away a little name book and their meanings. I now […]

Congratulations again! I had a girl first too. Much the best idea.

PS – arm yourself with ‘Dr’ language, ie use terms that they use. It works wonders.

My first labour was ghastly as I had drips in every arm and was tied to the bed. Took forever and actually getting the baby out was very hard work – I was given that injection in the spine to block pain and you […]

Meh… I have the the symptoms you are describing re control ALL the time – but it became SO easy during pregnancy, by comparison. Whinge, whinge.

Analogues (on principal I won’t call them insulin, since they aren’t!) are MUCH worse. I don’t know if it’s the little proteins that haven’t all folded causing an immune response or possibly the larger […]

Is it vestigial problems with the retina – can you have the optic nerve disconnected in the blind eye?
lizz replied to the forum topic Unexplained highs due to stress?? in the group Shoot Up 12 years, 4 months ago

I go up like this due to stress. 32 is my record, not long ago. Horrible – and if I bolus, then I go very, very low later.
lizz replied to the forum topic Strange things happening to fingers… in the group Shoot Up 12 years, 4 months ago

Hi Nig – getting worse I’m afraid. I now have pain in my joints – they sort of go red on little bumps on some of them. I was feeling as if I didn’t want to clap something the other day and remembered that was […]

Hmm, I don’t think I’ve ever felt that ill. So perhaps that’s why I’m not worried! Hardly ever get anything.
lizz replied to the forum topic 'flu jab in the group Shoot Up 12 years, 5 months ago

I don’t get it, I rely on vitamin D3. I’ve only had flu once, when I was 6.
