Friend

Today I was 10.7 at morning tea so I was not aloud any carbs. Instead I had some salami,cheese,avo and ham.  At lunch I was 5.7 so eating all those non carbs was really good.  Today a friend is coming over for a couple of days which is great because I have not seen her in two months.  She will come for three days.  I do not know why she is coming for such a short time. I think the reason I have not seen her is because she lives 12 hours away.  Here name is Janie and she is awesome!!!!  Janie will arrive at 2.00pm today.

No needles!

Yesterday I ran out of needles Accu-check Mobile tester and so I had to prick myself with a really painful needle and I was not too impressed.  Today Mum got some needles which was great.  I did not tell you me and Mum got the wrong needles in the first place, so that was not a great start.

Eye test

Today I had my eyes tested to see if they were bleeding.  I know what your thinking, that sounds terrible but it is not too bad.  What they meant is that when you get diabetes, if your levels are too high too often it can lead to blindness.  But it would have to be very bad and very poor control.  You can't see it unless it is really bad and then your vision will be bad in other words blurry.  The good thing is that it does not hurt.  Now I have to go because I can barely keep my eyes open.

No morning injection!

Just lately they said I do not need to do my morning insulin, if my lunch time levels are okay.  The paediatrician said I am only taking half the amount of insulin for my body weight. I thought that they were going to bump my insulin dose up my body is making enough at the moment which is great. So now I do three injections a day.

Arrived!

Hi guys,  I have just got my medical necklace today and it is awesome.  I have waited for three weeks and finally I got it.  I will try and post a picture for you because the one I already have is a too small and mine is much cooler than the one on my blog.

All this darn pricking...

One of my friends is coming over for a play but I have to test to see if I can have some of the yummy muffins my sister made.  I am very annoyed that I have to prick my self before I can eat the muffins but at least I can eat afterwards.  Don't you think by now they would have come up with some type of cure for diabetes.  Dar yes!!! They should of come up with sum sort of cure?

Medical Necklace

Soon I am getting a necklace so if I had a very bad hypo and couln't tell anyone that I was diabetic and I went to hospital they would read the back of it and know I need insulin.  The necklace will be here on Friday I hope but it is already overdue by two weeks which is very annoying!

My new tester

I've just been given a new tester called Accu-check Mobile.  It does not hurt at all when I prick my finger and so I do much more checking of my blood. This helps me have a stable blood sugar more often because I can adjust my eating and insulin.  It gives me more of a normal life and I can almost do what I used to ...but I still do not play soccer and basketball but maybe this term I will.  I am getting a case to hold my Accu-check mobile so I can have it on my side.
