Bonjour a tous, (hello everyone) – just slipped into French for a moment. I was worried that I hadn’t received my blood test results within a few short hours, now day 3 so I telephoned – hence having French in my head. Apparently the tests I have had take up to 7 days to see if something grows on the sample, particularly for toxoplasmosis. I have cats but I never allow them near my face – no kissing – so I don’t think I will have that. Anyway I should have all my results by Monday.
Back to the reason we are here – healthy eating. Glad I stuck to my own motto of KOKO because I have now lost a little bit and know it pays not to give up.
Verano, yes the magic number is 8 units and I am going to discuss with Dr at my September check up (although I will probably have to see him before then for other things). The reason is the wedding and nearly 3 weeks in the UK driving around visiting friends and family which will probably put my BG up a bit and I will need a few weeks to get back down.
BTW, I know Pontefract very well. My brother did his nurse training at the Infirmary there, we are from Leeds originally but in my last years in the UK we lived in Northallerton in North Yorkshire.
Well that’s all the chat for now. Stay safe in this heat, drink plenty of water and keep the house cool by shutting curtains and not letting the heat in. I have a little fan right at the side of the bed which blows near my face and I sleep very well, even in 25 degrees at bedtime last night.
