Yeah, sure it's a good thing! But if I am in an environment where I have limited access to water and electricity it's not a solution.
Are there no cases that at least lower temperature without the need for anything else?
Thank you Antje!! :)
I would rather not say what kind of job, bcs I prefer to be totally anonymous online.
My job concerns helping people and I travel a lot.
I currently live in Denmark. Can I get the Frio there?
All other advice is also welcome. The thread don't need to die here.
Thank you! :)
There might be times (even weeks) where I will not be close to any fridge or even electricity...
Therefore the question. So some kind of bag that needs to be cooled down with the fridge is not useful sadly. Maybe there are some bags/cases that keep heat out a bit just from the...
Hi!
I have gotten a new job where I will be living and working in a warm climate. 30+ degrees Celcius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) is standard and sometimes more than 40 degrees Celcius (104 degrees Fahrenheit).
I will not always be able to have my insulin in a fridge.
Has anyone experience...
I get an itchy scalp when my glucose is high. I believe it gets worse in the moment when the sugar is high. Has anyone else experienced this?
I have also lost some hair, but do not know if my diabetes is the main cause, one of several causes, or not a cause at all.
Experience?
It's always the...
Hi there!
I have had type 1 for 30 years now.
I so far have no complications.
I have a few questions about things that I have noticed for many years, but not really thought about asking before.
I have not been apart of a diabetes forum before.
1. Do you as a type 1 experience that you...
Thank you :)
Would be interesting if anyone found a scientific article about my question. I have a hard time finding one.
1-2 liters is not that much on a 180 cm 95 kg man, right.
I wonder if it is good or bad for the kidneys.
Thank you for your answer. :)
So, I never do urine tests myself (only blood). I do them like once a year at the hospital, but at home its only phone scanning with the libre.
Before that I did fingersticks.
You gave such a professional answer with the math and all. :)
But the conclusion is that...
Thank you for thorough answer. :)
Yes they have said that for decades, but I think that it has mainly been for other reasons. Helping the liver etc.
Maybe I have only had clueless doctors, but I have never had it explained to me that water could lower the blood glucose in real time that fast...
Pretty sure it is faster yes. I think it even makes a turn.On my libre it can have a slight uppward arrow and after drinking it goes down.
I might have been dihydrated without knowing it and that might be what releases some of the feeling of tension when I drink. Dont know.
I just know this is...
I have had type 1 since 1990 so I have had some time to try different things.
I am almost 100 sure that when I drink alot of water (1-3 liters) at the same time. Like during 15 minutes or so, well then the blood sugar dives. Sometimes it goes fast so fast I go into hypo and have to eat...
