    Type 1 How to help

    @Jaylee thanks, he knows about the Libre as we spoke about it. However since we do not live in UK he is not eligible for one and he's not really up to paying over €130 monthly for sensors.

    Type 1 How to help

    @Jaylee no, I don't think so. Never seen him without the insulin. Once he forgot to take it with him, realised 5 mins after arriving to my place and went back for it. It was still very early into the relationship, I didn't know much how everything works and I stupidly asked if he cannot take it...

    @Jaylee haha adult toy, perfect :D I was quite concerned when he told me he's diabetic but then I finally understood why everything is being planned around food. @porl69 does she have a solution for that?

    Type 1 How to help

    @KK123 he doesn't have libre, we do not live in UK and there's no similar thing in our country. He has to rely on his meter readings. Yes, I try not to ask too many questions, as the many I already asked did seem to annoy him a bit. I know he lives with it longer than I know him and he knows...

    Type 1 How to help

    @Jaylee thanks for the info about alcohol! I didn't know about it. We do drink wine sometimes (with dinner for example), he likes whiskey and gin. Not on a daily basis, more on the meeting friends occasion, which happens quite rarely lately. Not going to make him not drink but I will keep an eye...

    Thanks @JoKalsbeek - you actually made me smile ;) We did talk about what should I do when he goes hypo and the only solution he had was "work with me". I guess he is not even sure himself because no one tried that? I don't know. He also told me that in case he loses conscious to not freak out...

    Type 1 How to help

    @Rokaab thanks for answer. He was complaining about his mother doing that and he said it annoyed him in both hypo and fine mind. He showed me the way she did it and I actually jumped back from the glass. I do understand her reasoning, but she still does that occasionally and I guess she should...

    Type 1 How to help

    Hey @Juicyj , thanks for answer :) With regards to your question if he feels going low - I thinks so because once we were at my place, watching a movie, and he said to me "I have to eat something" - I asked why (we ate dinner like 2 hours before) and he said "i feel like I'm going low". Since...

    Type 1 How to help

    Hi, I'm not exactly sure if this is correct forum for this question so if it should be somewhere else, admins please move it :) My boyfriend is Type 1 for over 20 years, so most of his life. We are together for 2 years and I'm still learning about it. I never knew anyone with diabetes, or at...
