Hi Everyone,
My name is Ashley, I'm 29 and have been Type 1 for 3 years now. I would say up until January of 2019, I've been in denial that I have this very often overwhelming autoimmune disease. Since January my blood sugars have been extremely high which causes a lot of mood swings, tiredness... you know. I've been trying to control it the best I can with taking two types of insulins, watching my diet (I lost 30 lbs in 3 years) but the past 2 months have been exhausting. I've been sick, still am after 2 months, I have this dry cough that won't seem to go away with headaches that I wake up to every morning. Am I doing something wrong? Has anyone had a lingering dry cough mixed with headaches for this long while living with TID? Do you think they are related? Or maybe just stress?
I would love to hear from you.
