It'll be a tax on reading books next.
Or maybe a tax on staring too long at an interesting wallpaper pattern?

It's all a waste of money all it does it sends the results to your phone
My old one kept the results in it's memory which is all you need and I paid for it myself
Now with the new one the NHS has to fork out £20 + the on-going price of the needles and the test strips, which i use to buy myself

Right - so all relatives informed about "the problem"
they were all very supportive
but I do kinda remember SWMBOs Mum once - before she died (obviously). We were sitting in her kitchen as usual and chatting and I made some humerous comment about her looking after her eldest daughter and she said
"No mate - she's your problem now!!"
she was joking
(mostly - SWMBO has always been "independant" although she was very close to her parents - they didn;t always appreciate her knowing more than they did - although she generally did!!!)
so I suspect there is a small tinge of "Fot Pete's sake don;t die - then we'll have to keep an eye on her!!!!"
anyway - all had realised that I can;t drive for a while (a week?) so picking up kids and stuff is out for a while
nice that they were all so concerned
(well - the females - the lads (except her son) have assumed their Mum/Sister/Wife will do the sympathy bit!!)
anyway - off to walk to ASDA now - can;t drive to it'll take a while!

You might want to check the driving bit with the DVLA. I'm epileptic and after an "episode" I'm not allowed to drive for 12 months. I've also had a burst blood vessel in the brain. This is the precursor to a full blown stroke. I wasn't allowed to drive for six months following this and needed a consultant neurologist to sign me off as fit to drive before my licence was reinstated.
I don't want to worry you but I feel you should check carefully on the DVLA website. Often these things are simply classified as "DVLA aware." It doesn't mean you lose your licence but it does mean you've complied with the law.
You might also check your insurance. Failure to declare a medical condition can invalidate your cover.

I haven’t had anything since an early tea time yesterday. I’ve been reading lots about fasting again and have nearly completed a 24 hour dry fast. I’ve actually found it easier than a water fast, and it’s supposed to have even greater benefits.

Mrs B had a TIA about 8 years ago. No lasting ill effects. After various scans etc, the Consultant who treated her, discharged her with the reassuring words “just get on with your life, you will probably die of something else”. It would appear his words were prophetic, she has had no further “incidents”, but, now has Alzheimer’s diagnosis, which will probably see her off, eventually.

You mean to be the admin
or more general sitting on a riverbank all day in the rain watching a piece of nylon dangling in the water doing naff all???
