Hi, 8 months into T1 (late onset) and just got a HbA1c of 5.7 (39 I think) so overjoyed on that front.... Just had a minor cold last week and am struggling to get my bg down from 7.8 during the day (in high 6 range at night this week).... Is it my cold or has my honeymoon period come to an end? Even injected an extra unit of Levemir this morning in the hope of some control... Not eaten more than 4 carbs per meal.... injected an extra 1.5 units of novo rapid 3 times today..... hmmmm.
Would you mind sharing what it was like for you going through a cold and how you coped with it (Im just using my gut feeling at the moment and some information from this site). My ketones are normal....
If you have any experiences/advice on what to expect for this honeymoon issue as well I would be very grateful.
Thought I had it sussed with the HbA1c.... but at least I am learning (everyday).
