Hi everyone
I am Clara 21 years old and new to this forum or any forum at all
I have been a Type 1 diabetic since 9 years old ...
and i am taking currently 4 units of Tresiba (went just recently down from 6) and between 5 -15 units of Novorapid per day.
I am facing currently 2 new(recently discovered) challenges and wanted to ask for advice in this community.
1) How to get BS spikes after exercise under control?
At the moment i am trying to heathily gain weight and started doing runs in the morning for about 25-30minutes which usually give me a big BS spike towards the end of the run
This spike is additionally amplified by what i think you call the dawn phenomenon.
I tried taking 2 units Novorapid before my runs which led me to a Hypo towards the end of my run.
Any suggestions ?
2) How dangerous are Hypos during the night ?
Just 2 weeks ago i got the Freestyle Libre which i really love and helped me out a lot.
What i discovered with this new methode of measuring (I used the accu check mobile before)is that i frequently have hypos during the night which sometimes last the whole night long.
Which led to my decrease in Tresiba and to the question above.
I hope my first post was not to messy and in the right place
