Hi there!
Swedish girl ("woman" seems too grown up even though I'll be 30 soon) with Type 1 here! Have had it for about 10 years now. I work as a cook in a pub, which can be interesting with long shifts and late hours. Not easy to have good sleeping/eating routines with my erratic schedule but hey, it's (mostly) fun!
I have always been told how "good" I am at almost all my appointments. At the last visit the nurse raved about how well I was doing with only finger testing and pen injections, but since finding this forum I've realised my hbA1c and overall control could be sooooo much better!!
I don't know, I just think I've been lucky with good hbA1c results, because my bg results often are all over the place Lowest ever hbA1c was 46, latest check-up said 49. I just started using a contour next meter whick seems to get me more excited to get good readings, but time will tell...
Anyways, looking forward to learn more about type 1 stuff here! Hoping to find some motivation to get healthier and not just guess my way through life.
Whoopwhoop, enough blabbering, that's all for now!
Current bg: 5,6 mmol/mol
