Thank you for your reply, yes Im sure, but I haven't had a blood test since Feb, but that's what the Libreview figures are over the last 90 days. (I have asked to have another HbA1c) I don't have hypos that I am aware of, but it does drop to around 3.5 before meals and I know that I am hungry!

My health authority has changed the providers, so the really supportive consultant I had, has been replaced by a new team. A virtual meeting with the new nurse has left be bewildered and frustrated. Ive been diagnosed LADA for 3 years now, and manage my blood sugar with a mixture of low carb...

If you look at the composition, you will notice they contain Glucose. I found I couldn't take my Calcium supplement for the same reason

Thank you

Checked out on the Abbotts site before swimming today: Your sensor is water-resistant and can be worn while bathing, showering, or swimming as long as you: Do not take it deeper than 3 feet (1 meter) Do not keep it under water for longer than 30 minutes at a time My new sensor was applied...

I mountain bike 2 - 3 times a week. What I find is that on those days I don't need basal insulin. I eat a porridge breakfast,with Chia and Coconut Milk. Im also experimenting with eating more fats at breakfast. Avocado, coffee with cream etc I carry a banana, nuts and stop for food if...

I'm a relatively recent Type 1 LADA diabetic, in my honeymoon period, and not yet taking Insulin. So I don't know a lot about Diabetes. But I do know a lot about my body and how it works for me. Having ridden 100 miles today and 300 miles this week I can share what I've learnt for me Like...

Thank you. I have never eaten sugar or glucose, we don’t even have it at home. Chocolate was the only sweet thing I could think of. Looks like I have a lot to learn...

Sorry looking quickly I said the wrong one. It’s Novorapid The Levenmir is to keep in the fridge for now

but Im only to use it once my Blood glucose goes over 12. So when it did, it went to1.65 I took the 1 unit as I had 20g of carbs at dinner 90 minutes later I was 3.5 which it further dropped to 3.2 I ate 100g dark chocolate to try and bring it up. This took a further 90 minutes to get to...

Its a good question. The consultant told me to take 0.5 unit for 10g of carbs consumed if I go over the 12 Blood Glucose reading, and that I should find the carb content by looking on Apps such as MyfitnessPal. But I tried this the one time I got over 12, but been nothing like it since

Yes thats right!

Thanks for the reply, yes it is a mealtime insulin and I took 1ml

In the summer of 2017 I went to my GP as I had no energy, felt tired, not right but couldn't put my finger on it. Id been travelling and hadn't the usual control of my whole food, low sugar diet. GP ran tests and said nothing to worry about by late January 2018, again staying with friends...
