Has your doctor suggested any medication for the pain?

Winters are not so severe in India. I either go for walk in the evening or play golf.

Going swimming is a great type of exercise. What are your blood sugars before and after the swim?

I don't check them regularly if I'm honest. I try not to obsess.. Maybe I will just the once and let you know..

Hi sukiboo6 ,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

We can add swimming for an answer under the None of the Above choice. The Polls section only has 8 spots for choices when itโ€™s a multiple choice poll. Would you like to help us create a new poll for the next few weeks coming up?๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘

All a Bit Difficult, at the moment, though I DID walk along the Seafront- with my Mother- earlier today.

Normally I go to the Gym, once a week, then Swim and Finish in the Spa..... NOT at the moment though! I wonder how many Miles, I could 'Knock up' walking, and from my flat and the Office.....โ˜น.

Still we shall see.....
