I hav'nt given up on my blog, i have just been having some tough times as of late...no change there i guess!
So a quick update.....turns out my body doesnt just lack insulin, it also lacks red blood cells! so yeh a recent blood test shows i am anemic and i am taking iron tablets (when i remember..) to combat this...more medication whoopee!!
As for diabetes control i started off well a couple of weeks ago with good readings all day and eating relatively well...then last week it all went totally wrong!!sort of gone to pot a little this week but i shall be better next week hopefully be back on the straight and narrow!
One bit of exiting news is that in the next week i shall become an auntie to a little girl :) (already one day overdue but we are hoping she will arrive soon)
As for me i have been feeling crappy all week due to an icky cold i have picked up which is making my levels a little erratic and also making the syatica play up more than usual. Also due to my day off last week i am already down 60 quid in my december pay packet...so looks like christmas will be celebrated in january next year...
I am trying to think positive about everything i really am its just so hard when u have had so much shit all through your life and nothing good seems to happen...ever! i just need a break...something good to happen is that too much to ask really?
Well thanks for reading and lets hope the next week brings good things (see thinking positive!)

Welcome to the world of diabetes. I found your blog looking for diabetic tattoo ideas. I've had type one diabetes since I was ten years old - twenty-seven years later and I'm still here. I remember when I was diagnosed we checked our urine; imagine trying to determine the closest color match of the test tube to determine how much insulin to take? We've come a long way. Life gets easier and once you have your body on a rhythm you can tell your sugar level without even checking. Best of luck to you!
