Treating their hypos

Very off topic! If someone is on holiday in the UK and in need of a dentist, will this cost them a lot? And will they perform the work?

Thanks for sharing! Looks like an interesting read :happy:

Being extremely thirsty and urinating a lot is a shared symptom. For me, as a Type One, I had: Excessive hunger, excessive thirst, going to the toilet every 20 minutes, extreme weightloss, at first I have too much energy then suddenly slumped, slept most of the day! Thrush (Not nice!!) and my...

8.8, good going! I'm currently in burnout, so avoiding speaking of my levels currently, but normally I would be 6-8 before bed. I'd love to say 5, but I always snacked in the evening :hilarious:

Won't join in with giving precautions or anything as I'm sure you're well aware what's good to do from here but massive well done!! And remember, just because you're not a diabetic anymore doesn't mean you can leave the forum. You're here for life ;):hilarious:

Steroids increase sugar levels (as it makes our Adrenal Glands dump cortisol/glucose. Same as the 'dawn phenomenon we get sometimes.) Best advice would be to test her regular-ish, keep an eye on her levels. If after a little while it's still worrying, take her in for a blood test. Really hope...

I once bought a fairly cheap, cola flavoured vape juice. It's the only juice that's ever increased my BG's (but only very slightly). According to my friend who works in a vape shop: "Yeah all the liquids have sugar in it but it shouldn't affect your levels. If it does i'm pretty sure we do...

True! I love a buffet breakfast :hungry: (To OP): Little tips for this would be: Check the carb amount in the Yoghurt pots (If there are any!). If they're super high in sugar and low in protein, these will cause a fairly quick spike. If there is a decent amount of protein, it should be slightly...

Glad to hear you're getting the treatment & answers you deserve! Hopefully, you'll know exactly what happened soon! I had a period of awful lows last year and was (incorrectly) diagnosed with Addisons Disease. Ended up on steroids that I didn't need for months before they ran the tests for it...

Glad to hear you're feeling better! Good levels make me feel better, and when I'm high I just feel worse and it takes its toll. Really is a vicious cycle! Feel free to chat to me whenever you like, or even need a diabetes boost! I also highly recommend making a diabetes-based instagram...

Could be an infection you don't know about or something to do with your tooth! Also, make sure to use vials from a completely different box as it might be a bad batch potentially! My ratio is 1u:3g so I absolutely feel your pain. I've been through periods of resistance where I was on 1u:0.5g...
