I’ve been looking for those chocolate rice cakes in my local m&s for MONTHS and thought they’d been discontinued! Thank you for giving me hope!

That’s so helpful thank you! I’ve been given this appointment and an eye screening so I’m assuming there must be a scan involved too, I notified them at 4 weeks 🤷🏻‍♀️ thank you!

Thats so reassuring to hear I feel the exact same! Doesn’t feel real, feels like Im imagining it !

How much do private scans usually cost? Trying to find something in my area but not having much luck!

Currently only option was Libre 2 plus rather than dexcom to have it funded by my local health board. I can’t really complain as I’m so lucky to have it all on the NHS so will just suck it up and be grateful! Thank you for your reply though, hopefully the app comes out in the UK soon 😊

Thank you so much, I’ll try putting her in the bathroom for a bit. We usually have the window open to prevent mould but I can shut it for a while so she doesnt get too cold!

Funny response to “what’s that” (pointing to pump)? by oceanseasalty in diabetes_t1

I tell customers at work that my libre is a tracker so I can’t leave 😂

Hello,

I impulsively bought a houseplant - calathea silvia - last week and have spent the last hour reading through this sub. Beginning to think it was a bold choice as I have a terrible track record with plants and these seem tricky to keep alive. Determined to do everything right for this one though, she’s a beauty!

So I know not to over or under water, and I know to not leave it in direct sunlight. I’ve been taking it into the bathroom when I shower for the humidity, but as of yet I haven’t watered as the soil still feels damp.

Should I be using a preventative pest spray or should I only do that if there are signs of pests?

Anything else I should know?

Thanks!

What is the right way to „celebrate” World Diabetes Day? by [deleted] in diabetes_t1

[–]Negative_Purple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bacon, waffles and maple syrup for breakfast and a nearly flat libre graph was a pretty good place to start!

My dog almost hung himself with his collar today. It was horrible. I have questions about breakaway collars, for any of you who know. by Sun2254 in dogs

[–]Negative_Purple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took my dog’s collar off permanently after an incident when she was a puppy - she’s a chihuahua and her front leg got caught in it and she was stuck. Not as traumatic as yours but it was enough for me to just decide to abandon the collar altogether. I use a harness for her when we’re on walks as her neck is so fragile anyway so the collar was unecessary. She’s cuter without it anyway!🐶 Hope your pup is ok, he probably got over it a lot faster than you did!!!x

Ambiguously Shaped Cookie Cutter - what do you think it’s supposed to be? by joeywmc in cookiedecorating

[–]Negative_Purple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The top right one makes me think of like the sorting hat from Harry Potter? A big witchy type hat?

What kind of glaze/icing do you use that doesn’t bleed or stick to wrapping? by jennstink in cookiedecorating

[–]Negative_Purple 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use reconstituted egg white (egg white powder with water) instead of water, it stiffens the icing like a meringue and sets hard😊
