I beg to differ but yes you have done something different.
Initially you was a Type1 diabetic on Wednesday/ Thursday ....... and ......then you was aType1 diabetic on Friday/ Saturday.
What could be more different ??????????

Hi @becca59 ,

Now I can get consistent in range cruising in the low fives on a gig day/night.
The day job? I’m wrestling an alligator every other day.. (the graph.) 5 days a week I’m doing the same thing.. Same break times same structure.
The only thing I’ve come to understand, the harder I try the dodgier the result. Now you’d think this rock & roll lifestyle would put me on a spin? I don’t bother with the graph when doing a show, till after. Unless something rattles during.

My DSN reckons I should give up the day job & go full pro-muso. I kid you not.

You ain’t alone..

diabetes is an odd thing

I spent time to think of these two graphs.

the less insulin the better the result

the more we have insulin, the more things become complicated.


sorry went too far, but that what I was thinking of

Weather? If I'm outside on a hot day it's a rollercoaster

If only that were the case. More insulin was needed because I was high, and I knew it wouldn’t shift on its own. Had also done a 4 mile walk that morning. Yesterday a calmer day. Lowish carb roast pheasant, above ground veg, strawberries (home grown). Last insulin middle of the afternoon. Constant alarms through the night for lows. Many jelly babies eaten. Usually pretty calm overnight.
With a lowish carb diet, an HBA1C of 41, TIR over 90% and my own TOTAL daily insulin usage usually less than 27 and often lower than 20 dark forces were at work here. Hopefully back to normal today

Sorry, @becca59
I do not judge at all.

Something crossed my mind that day and I talked about low carb.

Cause i have these roll coasters and yesterday was an awful one.

My apologies again

Diabetes can be hard if you eat less carbs less insulin required
