Good night everyone, and sleep well without hypos. Hope the dentist experience isn’t as bad as you fear Cumbs.
I have a couple of Kids pens with half units, useful plus I really like the colours![]()
I had the NovoPen Echo too, for Novorapid and Tresiba (all Novo Nordisk stuff), but all the manufacturers do them, I believe.
What i like about the novopen echo is it lets you know what the last dose was you injected![]()
Isn’t diabetes control randomly routine?There's a plot?
Wow - I thought it was all just random!
(At least, that is how it feels a lot of the time.)
I don’t do routine.That suggests there is a routine but as I eat, sleep, exercise, get ill, drink when I feel like (and sometimes when I don't feel like it) and not to a strict routine, diabetes has no chance.
For a short time, I tried eating and exercising to a routine but diabetes wouldn't join in so I gave up and went back to my usual randomness on the basis that if you can't beat 'em join 'em.
Was always told there was no availability for adults. Asked 11 months ago.
A Question about Hypos' Hyper's and things that may go bump in the night.
I am I the only one around here that seems to not mind hypo's?
As I've said before I am wary of them and I respect them, bit like Hyper but I am more likely to over compensate to prevent a Hyper than a Hypo. I really hate Hyper's and will do almost anything to stop them.
But overall they, to me, are just a part and parcel of being a diabetic and so while I may drop below 4.0 I kind of just shrug my shoulders and take something to take me back up.
And before anyone accuses me of "not knowing what a hypo is" last November I had such a bad night time one that the paramedics were asking if Mrs Knikki was next of kin.
But even after that I did not run myself deliberately high in fact I just worked on keeping everything level and even now with the new insulin for me being nearer 4 than 9 is what I want.
