I just got my hba1c results and they were excellent (5.7%). I wanted to talk about hypos as with a recent change in diet and exercise I am experiencing quite a few. I have messed about with basal rates and delayed glucose lowering (a good cardio sessions drops my levels substantially for approx 18 hours). All improvements for me have been a result of trial and error which I am happy with because I'm getting to know my own body as well as my diabetes.
I am sick to death of appointments where I see a different doctor each time due to staff rotations and being asked ridiculous questions that would be asked of a newly diagnosed patient. Is this how it is going to be forever?! I get irritated easily I know, but I am fed up of being patronised by doctors that clearly have literally no idea what it is like to live with diabetes.
Rant over, apologies -
