just curious

[knipster]

which process do you find the most difficult?
-injecting
-testing
-carrying equipment/ treatment everywhere

if you have another answer please let me know!

I find carrying my insulin pens and blood tester around difficult because people always ask what they are and although I can talk about it I’m still not really confident about talking about it

no difficulty.

Definitely carrying all the diabetes stuff around with me.
Makes just running out the door take longer ... including finding a suitable bag (which goes with what I am wearing).
I would love to just pick up my phone (which I always know where it is) and go.

Edited to add:
Ooops, sorry. Just realised this was aimed at children and teens. Can my answer stay anyway?

I find remembering to take everything with me every time I leave the house the hardest.
I probably only forget 2 or 3 times a year -- but it is so frustrating getting to a destination and realising I have forgotten one of the bits of kit.

If I'm honest I don't have any of these issues. I got used to it. I get on with it. I accept it there's nothing I can do about it.

None really! Had it for 7 years so it’s an everyday thing

That's what I think too, just I've had it 3 months

It’s an everyday thing now so I get on with it as I would any other day
