Today I spoke to a Dr about repeat iron test and should I have any other bloods as other week I had mild DKA with normal blood sugars. He proceeded to tell me you “you can’t go into DKA with normal blood sugars” I was absolutely stunned, and although my tone was slightly stern, I proceeded...

Thank you. Says it all then. Glad I didn’t fall for it.‍

I’ve just looked at that, oh my god you are right, it says he is Jeffrey kullen.. that cements it then, no chance.

My endo has reduced my tresiba by 10% so will start it 3 days time when the 5 is out of my system

Thank you for your reply, Lows are my only main concern, I’ve decided to drop down to 5 units of tresiba to let that kick in as I start mounjaro on Sunday. I do walk at around 2 hours a day so don’t want to any hypo’s on the walks. Not going to lie diarrhoea would be a blessing for me [emoji23]

Hi thank you for the response, did you reduce your insulin right away yourself? I’m just debating if to reduce my tresiba to 5 units in a morning instead of 5.5. Then just take it careful with my nova rapid. Thanks

I have addressed every issue regarding weight, they are telling me it’s not insulin, for someone who eats very little, 3 meals a day mainly yogurt, 2 slices of toast, and on a good day maybe a roast dinner. The dietitian’s have nothing to say to me, again saying it’s not insulin that causes...

https://www.hcplive.com/view/tirzepatide-significantly-reduces-hba1c-body-weight-type-1-diabetes I’m having a read of everything and anything before I decide to take it or not. I want a lengthy conversation with my endo as it was a phone call and she wants to go through it all with me and...

England. I’m assuming they would not prescribe it me if they weren’t allowed.

Hi guys, My endo has just prescribed me mounjaro and I was wondering if any type 1s on here take this and how you have got on, low bloods? Weight loss? Side effects, I know everyone will be different, I’m just wanting to know if we can manage while on insulin. Thank you ❤️

I’m the same, if I take 6 units I hypo through the day, I take 5.5 and I’m steady away day and night. It’s worth trying and don’t forget, tresiba takes roughly around 4-5 days after changing the dose to see how it’s working, I usually give myself 10 days to see if it’s working for me or not...

I don’t know if I have an eating disorder, I just can think of nothing worse than getting a meal and it be anymore than 5 units of insulin. if I go out for food I order things that will be 5 units and under, I’m on 1 unit nova rapid to 10g carbs. I would never not take my insulin, definitely...

Haha! Don’t think eating will be a problem for me, I’m a bit OCD, I love breakfast and would rather have a big one of those and can take or leave eating rest of day, doesn’t matter how tempting something is I can never be bothered to take insulin so would rather miss the good stuff just so I...
