Newly diagnosed T1, been told to expect low teen BG’s for the first week or so after close call with nr DKA and hospitalisation earlier this month.
Just wondering if some of you ‘seasoned pros’ could give me an idea of what progress to make with this. I see some astonishing numbers on here when I’m browsing and feel I’m way off it.
I’ve had some good days and then some not so good days. However I’m feeling bloody awful if I’m closing in on 5 so tend to panic and eat something to raise BG’s. Dr said that’s because I’ve probably been so high for so long. Anyone else had similar experiences at the start of their diagnosis? When will 5 feel ok? I feel ok at 7 but below that I get dizzy, sweaty, slurry.
Thanks
T
