Hi all, I’ve read online that a rise in BG even if it goes back down after, over the long term, is bad for the arteries and veins etc. I have found that the only thing that help keep my BG stable and not spike up when I eat is exercise and if I inject Novorapid 30mins before I eat. How do you...

I exercise frequently as well, very beneficial, but things like pushups and home workouts make my BG go higher not lower. Also, strange about the weight loss, it was a symptom for me too but I put on every kilo back within a month.

I think maybe you’re right If I need to again I should have something small with it Thank you!

Hi, I take Lantus in the mornings not in the evenings, I had dinner at 7pm and injected at around 00:30. I don’t drink any alcohol

Hi, I literally ate a good 5+ hours before and for me my bolus kicks in at hour 3-4

Hi all, How do you treat a high BG before bed? I was on 12.3 before going to sleep so injecting 1 unit knowing it would bring me down anywhere between 6-9 (really varies honestly) But instead it brought me down to 3.8 in the middle of the night!! How can it go down so much and how do I...

Hi all, I am on novo rapid and Lantus, altogether 4-6 injections a day (4 + 2 correction doses if I ever need) I was diagnosed in May 2020 and at first everything was pretty relaxed I adapted pretty fast to the injecting and everything, I got a CGM (self funded) because I needed to understand...

Hi all, I am on NovoRapid 3/4 times a day before meals and Lantus in the morning. I am really struggling to understand how my body is working at the moment. I am trying to speed up the time it takes for my body to go back to the same glucose it was before a meal, after eating. This used to...

Hi all, My blood sugar is at 16 before bed and am not sure whether I should be taking a correction dose or not (maybe 1 unit even)? If you could help, thank you I am on 18 Units of Lantus in the mornings and Novorapid before meals.

Will do that now, I thought I did already my bad. I’m Type 1 on Lantus 18 Units in the mornings and NovoRapid before meals.

Hi to all, I have seen some diabetics that just devour big burgers and pizza and big bowls of pasta. Whilst I am not looking to do that everyday, it would be nice once a week or once every two weeks to do that because I used to be a big fan of all this stuff and still am, although I’ve not yet...

Hey, does it do so without the need to connect to iPhone?

Hi to all, Does anyone recommend the Medtronic IPort or any others that they know of? I’m quite skinny and injecting in different locations all the time with enough skin is sometimes painful and difficult even with the small needles. Thanks!

Hey all, I have an Apple Watch which I would love to be able to use as a glucose monitor without my iphone and am currently using the Dexcom G6. I am not finding it possible to do so, I have bumped into some forums talking about XDrip, I still don’t understand what that is either. Is it...
