@Shaz51 Hugs to you 💐 How have the pesky side effects been treating you the past few days?

Hello @Owlunar , @cloudcore , @Zoe7 , @NatureLover , @Emelia8 , @Appleblossom , @Sophia1 ,, @Wanderer @@Anastasia ❤, @frog 

The side affects are not too bad , just stomach pains , nausea @Former-Member 

My second injection is tomorrow for me to give myself

One thing that is a positive is that when I stopped my diabetes tablets all my joint pains have gone away --- looks like it was the tablets fault 

So now they want me to have a bone test done to see if my bones are ok 🤞🤞

Aw @Shaz51 that still sounds a little rough, nausea is the pits. I'm really glad the join pain has gone, one less thing on your plate.

[Shaz51]

Yes still have arthritis @Former-Member , 

Yes the side affects are suppose to go away in time they said

How did you go with your appointment @NatureLover xx

Hello @Wanderer , 

[NatureLover]

Hi @Shaz51 , I recently had a diabetes medication review, actually 3 reviews, at the GP, diabetes educator and pharmacist. My psychologist wanted me to have the reviews. My tablets have been sorted and I have a new one.

Did you have the bone test @Shaz51 ?

[Shaz51]

No bone test yet @NatureLover 

Have been on injections for 8 weeks now 

Blood test done next month 

Hope the news meds help you xx 

[NatureLover]

Thanks, @Shaz51  😍

How is the injecting insulin going, are you used to it yet?

Being diagnosed with prediabetic means to cut back on sugary drinks 

Processed foods , like take aways, sausage rolls, pies,  chips, biscuits  etc 

To drink more water
