Just surprised s/he didnt do that for you right away... its just donefrom a blood sample like when they test your iron levels when you go to give blood

 

I wasnt registered with them so they couldnt do it there and then. Plus with blood tests you cant eat or drink can you?

Drink more Guinness.

 

Si, please don't do this. I don't think I could cope with a "my shit has turned black" thread.

 

Good luck with the blood tests, anaemia isn't too bad to control and even if if was diabetes it isn't the problem it once was to deal with. Never know you could become a top expert on good cookery for people with diabetes.

A blood test like that is no problem...they only need a syringe-ful. No need to not eat and drink. They'll just do it there and then, send it away and the results should be back in a few days.

They'll just ask you to roll up your sleeve and you'll feel a bit of a prick.

Si, I know you're into food but perhaps you just need a slight change of diet; as others have alluded to it hints at a lack of something in your body and the milk cravings are just seeing you through it. Do you eat plenty of broccoli and green veg?

 

Hopefully the blood test don't show anything too serious, if anything at all.

I have it on good authority this Cow was in fact trying to escape from Simon, not the farmer indicated in the story.

Cow leaps three foot fence and squashes car

Motorist Robert Gould is lucky to be alive after a startled cow leapt over a three-foot fence and landed on his car.

 

The frightened Friesian has written off Robert's Citroen C5 after denting the bonnet and breaking a wheel after bounding onto the busy road.

 

Stunned police later breath-tested Robert after he called 999 to report the collision.

 

It is understood the cow which died at the scene had been trying to escape from a farmer when it jumped into the road on the outskirts of Leek, Staffs.

 

Robert escaped with cuts and bruises despite skidding almost 80 yards and ending up on the wrong side of the road as he tried to stop.

 

The 24-year-old said: "I am now looking out for low-flying cows when I am driving ."

 

Safety officer Robert, of Barlaston, Staffs, said: "I was driving along when a cow jumped out and landed on my bonnet.

 

"It had hurdled a three-foot high fence and hit the front of my car.

 

"I had no time to brake and my car veered to the other side of the road.

 

"I was very lucky that nothing was coming in the opposite direction.

 

"The police were very nice about everything, although I don't think they could quite believe it either.

 

"They breath-tested me which came back negative."

 

Dad Chris, aged 53, said: "To see a cow flying over the top of the car made Robert jump and it has left him in shock. It was a good job the road was not busy at the time."

 

The dead cow was later removed by a digger.

 

Bob Lee, who retired from Staffordshire Ambulance Service after 30 years dealing with emergencies, said: "I have heard of someone being trampled by a cow, but never a cow jumping over a fence and landing on a car."

 

Farmer Clive Langford-Mycock believes the cow must have been very frightened to have jumped the fence during last weekend's incident.

 

The farmer, a former Staffordshire National Farmers' Union chairman, said: "Accidents involving farm animals are very rare.

 

"Something must have happened to frighten the cow. Possible causes could be thunder or lightning, low-flying aircraft, one of those stupid Chinese lanterns or a man dressed as a Roman trying to get milk direct from the source."

 

"I hope the driver gets over it."

 

* I may have added a little bit extra to the story *

It shouldnt be,its quite easy to control these days,especially type 2,which you would be more likely to have,which isnt certain at all.

 

Judging by his age and build, if Simon was diabetic he'd almost certainly be Type 1.

 

Type 2 diabetics tend to be overweight or over 50.

 

I was diagnosed Type 1 at 35 and I'd never been below 10.5 stone (dropped to 9 at the time I was diagnosed) or over 11.5 since the age of 18.
