This evening I received an email from NHS, as signed up for Be Part of Research and was asked to do a survey about loneliness.
It was an easy survey to do and hopefully it will provide help for people.

Week 212 – Apr 2nd – Can we get the pump
This morning I went with Claire to see the diabetic nurse to see if Claire can go on to a pump that allows her to control her insulin better and then her diabetes.
Of course being Claire, it’s not going to be straight forward because of the amount of insulin she is taking, but the nurse was positive about it.
Keeping our fingers cross, especially after the impact that the Libre has had.

Week 205 – Feb12th – Not a pleasant way to start the week

Not sure what caused it, but I was hit by the Norovirus.
Never had it before and never want it again.
Completely knocked me for six.

Week 203 – Feb 2nd – Eye Test
Today, I finally got to the opticians to have my eyes tested, after the issues with the car. Have been using this optician for over 50 years.
As my prescription as slightly changed, I will need to have new glasses. Which are not cheap. What is these days?
An extra check, I paid for diabetic eye check, which was all clear.
I like that I can see parts of my previous eye tests from other years on the computer and thankfully they have hardly changed.

Just by chance, I happened to go to the NHS app on my phone, as I noticed that I could see my blood results. They came back OK, which is a relief.
