Q5 What's the thing you look forward to most in the run up to Christmas? #GBDoc

Q4 Does the change in routine affect your glucose levels? Stress makes mine go up but I often move less and eat more so that makes it go higher. #GBDoc ⬆️⬆️⬆️

Q3 I'm not great at being out of control so I find not having my normal routine really stressful. Does the additional thinking impact on your mental well-being or do you let it go? #GBDoc

Q2 It's all well and good when we can look at menu's in advance, what happens when plans change? Spontaneous events can be stressful. What do you do to make this easy to cope with? #GBDoc

Q1 As we approach the festival season, we often find ourselves out of our normal routine. How do you plan for anticipated changes of routine, such as eating out or at different times? #GBDoc

Today is November 20...birthday of James Collip

One of the unsung heroes in discovery of #Insulin-he helped to purify insulin for use in humans

Also credited with one of the very first descriptions of hypoglycaemia & its treatment with glucose solution

Amazing!!! #Diabetes

With the chilly days rolling in, how does the cold weather affect your glucose control?

For me personally I think I tend to run a little higher!
