Get well soon Dave. A bit of rest and some good drugs should sort you out

Thanks.....my blood sugar has gone through the roof as well, but I'm told that because I have an infection....

However I don't intend taking sugar if I can avoid it.

Checking the fridge.....those cartons of Orangina ......will have to go.....very high natural sugar
Packet of cornflakes with have to go......high in sugar too.

So off to the supermarket in a min
To get Nestle mini shredded wheat.......very low in sugar
Low sugar made from concentrate fruit juice
Low sugar squash of some sort.
And another 4pint of semi milk......im going through loads of milk at the moment

Back from Hospital tonight.....went back to A&E on Monday....kept me in.....long and short of it ....
Chest infection....sorted now...
temp ... sorted now
blood sugar out of control ..... back in crontrolish now (back on gliclazide tabs)
one lung drained of fluid (almost) feeling a bit sore as drain was only removed about 2 hrs ago.

Interesting Doc asked me if ive id been been abroad recently....I said no....as he said they have several cases similar to mine with them at present .... they had been diagnosed as Swine Flu ......but they had been more poorly. I never asked if Swine Flu is an airbourne virus.....so I'm guessing that a passenger of mine had it... 

Hey ho ......got 2 weeks of antibiotics......hoping to be back at work on Monday  ......with the promise that i'll go back to A&E again! if I get worse  .....

Should sleep well tonight, without nurses waking me up every 2 hours asking to take vitals!

Thanks Jason....

I could write a novel about money wasting at my local Hospital.......but that's another story.....except the health care is excellent

I'm still not at work 

Went to see diabetic nurse today.....who has doubled my diabetic tabs to try get my blood sugar down.
The effect of having a high blood sugar....is it constantly makes you feel knackered and wanting to have a pee every couple of hours.....so I'm not sleeping that well, waking up every couple of hours....

Nursey is phoning me on thurs to see what effect the doubling of the diabetic tabs is having......and then go from there....

I also got a present from her today.....a brand new blood sugar monitoring machine....I don't know why? It looks much the same as my 4 yo machine which still works
