I can’t help myself from eating everything in sight when I have a hypo

So I was diagnosed type 1 in september, and now it’s April and i got my hba1c back today and it was 64. In november (2 months after diagnosis) it was 88 so it’s gone down but I feel like I could’ve done better (in the 50s). I know it’s still fairly early days for me but I still feel like it...

Night

That's a good idea actually

So the other day I posted about Been generally higher and I've now worked out that I've been high everyday for a new days on the afternoons after lunch. Do I just need to increase my rapid acting after lunch? Because I did increase my background but that didn't help

I also felt that when I was diagnosed and it did soon improve for me I hope it does for you too

I'm 16 and was diagnosed 5 months ago

I'm on pens

hi, for the last couple of days i’ve been getting some higher results than usual, ranging from 11-16 but i’m unsure why because i’m not ill or anything?

I've not tried glucose tablets before I just use jelly babies and they seem to be working well

Oh god hope everyone involved is okay! I'm gonna have to be super careful when I start learning in a couple of months for hypos usually my hypo awareness is pretty good though

So I'm almost 17 and have just applied for my provisional license and declared that I have insulin treated diabetes. Just wondered if anyone has ever had any issues getting a license because of diabetes?

I'm happy to hear you're feeling more positive again :)

I take 36 units of lantus a day, and novorapid with meals dose depends on carb intake

Been really ill with tonsillitis over the past couple of days, luckily my bg hasn't been too bad (highest I've tested was 9.7). Was a bit worried last night when blood ketone level was 0.9mmol but tested again this morning I'm down to 0.1.
