To think there’s no point going to the GP with this?

[fightingflu]

I started with what I think is flu on Monday - temperature over 39, aching, coughing, vomiting, headache etc.
Ive slept basically all week and don’t feel any better although my temperature did come down yesterday but is back up again today.

I’ve not eaten anything since Monday morning and I’ve barely been able to drink anything either.

I am a t1 diabetic but sugars are fine.

I’ve just got to wait it out haven’t I? It’s viral so nothing anyone can do. Also right now I’m not well enough to get to the GP surgery.

Honestly i'd ring 111 being a T1 diabetic.

All other things being well (your diabetes), no I wouldn’t go to the GP. I’d wait it out. It takes time.

As a T1 I wouldn't bother with 111. They hear T1 and always tell you to be seen. I wasted a lot of NHS time when I was younger because of that.

Personally I wouldn't go to the GP as long as sugars and ketones are fine. But nobody else can make the decision for you.

If you're not drinking, and are not eating as a diabetic, you need advice at the least.

What are your blood sugars showing?

Agree phone 111 at least.

With your history of diabetes I think you should get yourself seen.

Running between 5 and 8. Bloods like it when I don’t eat 🙄
No ketones earlier, although will check again as definitely lost weight.

Same here. The only good thing about being ill is my Libre line being totally flat!

I hope you turn a corner at the weekend.
