I was over it the second I heard about it back in september and I am twice as over it now. Today's joyfulness: being taken aside for a chat about "whether you feel OK about doing this sort of work." They are starting to realise.

I had my first post diabetes birthday recently. It was ****. You want me to apologise for wanting a bit of cake on my birthday? OK maybe I'm juvenile, I like cake. Didn't end up doing anything at all just because it would have rubbed it in.

You say that a lot, almost as if you're trying to persuade yourself.

I have this disease, see. And there isn't any need to shout.

*sigh* I get that a lot.

I do half units, nobody said I shouldn't. I would totally be prepared to believe that they weren't doing anything as it's all so random anyway but I have done it a lot.

25 today. I didn't really expect it to be like this.

Pretty often mornings are too weird to eat but if I can I have something with eggs. Not really my choice, I was always a granola person, but that doesn't seem like a very sensible idea.

I tried splitting lantus, because it was making me feel terrible. It didn't seem to make any difference at all to the actual numbers (but it did help the feeling terrible a bit.) My numbers go crazy around the time I wake up no matter what I do, whether I eat breakfast, whether I don't, whether...

I'm going to say it again... This is very very strange. Who would want to mark themselves with THAT, of all things...

Define low carb. I probably average 50g or less most days but the more carbs I eat the more I have to inject and the more risk there is of screwing up badly. People say it's not the way they want to live their lives. It's not the way I wish to live my life either. Nobody said this was supposed...

You are the second person to say that in ten minutes. No.

Woah, you are ninja.

Concentrating on anything for more than about half an hour before thinking "oh god what's happening" and grabbing my phone. Running. Subway chicken marinara melts. Not living under constant stress and fear that if you screw up terrible things will happen to you, which basically means what I miss...

Is this not normal? You are crazy.

I guess there's no polite way to ask what someone's hba1c is?

Most of my questions are not this totally crazy? I just want to understand what's going on.

This is a serious question. This twice a day thing seems like it would be a lot less hassle than the MDI thing we all get to enjoy. Yes you have to totally control what you eat but it is a good day when I get to eat at calorie maintenance anyway. My diet is already completely fun free it could...

well maybe, unfortunately that doesn't help with the 500 billion other people who for some reason don't wear badges saying "by the way don't listen to me." Usually we have medical degrees to sort out the people who know what they're doing but that doesn't really seem to work with this.

In what sense can't get it to work properly? Try this... https://apple.news/A6w0eU50cSVWqNX36OeasEg
