I will kill you in instalments- that is exactly how I feel. My dsn also calls me brittle. And a puzzle she is trying to solve. T1 for 15 years, last 6 months have been terrible. No advise on exercise seems to work, reduce by 50 %, doesn’t work, trying 20% at moment, not looking good either. Walk...

I was on levimir, it’s being discontinued [emoji37] so was swapped to tresiba have had terrible issues with high bs, turned out its stacking because it lasts so long and I don’t need many units, so have been changed today, after a slight prescription error, to humalog i, which I think also may...

Thanks for that just confirmed my suspicions and dsn was hugely apologetic she had clicked on a half unit pen and it was the wrong insulin luckily she was in work today or by next week god knows where I’d be. Thanks [emoji5]

Can anyone give info on humalog. I was changed to tresiba, from levimir due to being discontinued, had trouble with that as continued stacking, whatever I tried. Have now been changed to humalog as a long acting, but looking this up humalog seems to be a fast acting insulin am confused as my dsn...

Re sensor - when I first had libre I would cover whilst swimming- now I don’t bother- usually only swim on holiday in the sea am in and out all day and never had a sensor come off. Always take clear patches that I get from chemist, just in case the glue starts to fail, but hardly ever need to...

Just a quick update, my bs has now improved and it has taken [emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji639]] days to reduce, so longer even out in my system, so a bit more than the recognised period, so now some fine tweaking as I’ve had a couple of hypos, but already a huge improvement...

Thanks so much I think maybe I am just impatient, walk the dog in the morning so that helps bring it down good to hear your experience and am hoping that Tresiba will be good for me too am sticking with my evening time of injecting as it will be easy for adjust with holiday time differences...

Definitely overthinking why are things so dire early in the morning [emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji639]].[emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji6[emoji640][emoji637]]] now so thinking the Tresiba is not quite lasting will increase today and see how goes coz it’s...

Started on Tresiba 4 days ago changed from levimir as that’s is soon being discontinued My problems started several months ago when my thyroid results were high. To cut a long story short, I had several thyroid results that were abnormal, over several months, the dr decided to try...

We are all so different if I injected 30 mins before food I’d be hypo I have to adjust depending on my bs maybe 10 mins before if I’m higher that 6, but if I’m 5ish I need to inject half way through eating. Everyday is an experiment [emoji4]

Omg I did not know about foot on the floor I often go high after I get up always seems to be the second I jab levimir in my bum I don’t understand why it does what it does. I am very insulin sensitive I can’t just inject a correction my sdn told me not to inject corrections without food as it...

I think living with T1 is like being an experiment just when u think things are working something happens to negate all your theories and notes then back to the beginning something that worked well 2 months ago is not working now. Each day is a challenge. Mostly I eat very well, but some days...

In America at the mo and struggling to find anything to drink but a very nice restaurant made me Soda ice mint cucumber lemon juice and slices of lemon, it was really nice and looked like a cocktail but guilt free

So much we cannot eat. Brazils are a good snack choice with a piece of cheese, dont effect my bs levels better than going for cake, I eat them every day. Another choice, but that’s life people [emoji4]
