after waking up, before going to bed, and the other two either before eating or 2 hours after eating to see if there is enough insulin or adjust the dose

my doctor told me 4 times, but for a long time I was too poor to financially afford it and measured bg 2 times a day. My hba1 at the same time was about 6-7

It's amazing! Your bg is the object of my envy :D

@Antje77 what did you end up eating? What do people usually eat at Christmas in the Netherlands?

Merry Christmas! Where I am, no one celebrates Christmas on December 25th, but I still have a cute Christmas photo of my cat

What do you mean by "rude comments and being blamed for my condition"? Is someone accusing you of having diabetes? I was 8 when I got diabetes, but my attitude towards it is very strange and atypical, because I like jokes about my diabetes and I find it funny to teach friends how to give...

What scares you? Do you lose consciousness often? I have been living alone since I earn my own living and for a long time I could not financially afford libre at all. There were no problems. The only thing I have is a box of caramel and sugar sticks by the bed.

telling people not to take insulin because it will lead to weight gain is like telling a person with pneumonia not to take antibiotics because it will cause diarrhea. But lying about the fact that insulin does not affect weight is somehow strange, especially since a person sees it anyway...

I almost died and my parents were almost deprived of their parental rights because of an attempt to do so

I do not know what it is, but it looks like cognac :D . Although I usually carry this with me, the idea of pouring liquor into a flask and telling everyone that I need it to treat hypo now haunts me :hilarious::hilarious::hilarious:

it seems to me that your research will lose a significant part of the data due to the fact that many people talk about their diabetes in words that would be turned into *** by this forum :D I hardly speak English, but I would love to read your research

Wow, @Antje77, you're so brave! I did not dare to go into the water with a temperature of +13C beyond the ankles, although some of my friends like to swim in the ice hole. But I'm a coward :hilarious:

Hmm... I use a regular toothbrush of medium hardness. I don't know what kind of brush I used as a child, but since I started buying toothbrushes myself, I usually buy the same one. To be honest, I never thought that I needed some other toothbrush because of my diabetes, at least for almost 20...

Oh, I'm sorry, I read it wrong. Of course, it is necessary for life. Without him, our weight would have been 20 kilograms, and then death

what do you mean by saying that insulin does not need insulin for life?! Diabetes was a deadly disease before the discovery of insulin

any insulin causes weight gain. It's a hormone. Insulin delivers glucose to your cells, and glucose is converted either into energy or fat.That is why a sharp weight loss is one of the main symptoms of T1. But this does not mean that you should give up inulin. In addition, if you exercise...

I meant that if the cause of diabetes was exclusively in the external environment, then it would not be inherited at all, but if, for example, your identical twin (and whether the disease is genetic is usually judged by comparing twins, especially identical ones) suffers from t2, then the risk...

if the cause of diabetes was in the diet, then diabetes would not be inherited

I just turned on the VPN and downloaded it as if I was in a country where this application is available ;)

I am one of those people who liked novorapid better than humalog, so I can only say that it is a good insulin, but yes, we are all different
