diabetic coma is a condition in which type 1 diabetes is very often diagnosed, so doctors are usually good at coping with it, basically droppers with insulin and saline are enough for a person to come to. A coma caused by low blood sugar, rather than high, usually has a negative effect on the...

I have nothing against them knowing that. I live alone and if I suddenly lose consciousness from hypo, it would be cool if an ambulance would be called automatically If you were not driving at that moment, why deprive you of your driver's license? Well, driving a car with hypoglycemia is...

It almost sounds like a full meal The doses of different people can differ dozens of times, so you will have to count yourself how much novorapid you need based on how many units you enter for 10g of carbohydrates

I can't say that I use typical contraceptives :rolleyes:, because in addition to ethyl estradiol, my pills also contain drospirenone and calcium levomefolate, but hormonal contraception is a very individual thing, I was prescribed such contraceptives also because I had such severe pain during...

my periods greatly increased my bg until I drank birth control pills. Hormonal contraception practically negated the effect of menstruation on bg, but I didn't trust a person without an endocrinologist's qualification to select my contraceptives

Basal compensates for the work of the liver, it has nothing to do with how much insulin you need for food. You will either have to compensate for the work of the liver with a bolus, regardless of whether you eat or not, or you will not have to do anything (tresiba is usually the second option...

Take your shot as soon as you remember about it. Tresiba is a wonderful insulin in this regard, its cycling will not lead to either hypo or spike if you give an injection a few hours later. I do not advise repeating my experience, but even after 12 hours everything was fine

a rather dreary option, but here https://www.mysugr.com/en/blog/basal-rate-testing/ I usually just compare bg at night and in the morning, but what's on the link is a better option

most of the time I have a range set from 4.5 to 9, simply because if my bg drops to 4.5, then most likely it will drop even more

fiasp acts faster than novorapid, it can be injected after eating. Otherwise, these insulins are identical. Although some people say they are allergic to fiasp.

will you jump into the water at such a great depth o_O?! I admire your courage!

I usually give another injection after 2-3 hours for deliciously fatty food

your levemir look like this or like this? if as the first option, then these are disposable syringe pens, if as the second option, then you need to remove the needle, twist the syringe pen in the middle until one part separates from the other, change the cartridge, screw in the piston and...

you can't. Sex is far from the only cause of hypoglycemia, and hyperglycemia is not always a romantic dinner. Why don't you just talk to her?

Sports or a low-carb diet. But remember that insulin is a medicine that makes you fat, so it will be harder than without diabetes. Although insulin is also a good dope for sports

Why not? It seems to me that we pay less taxes to the state than our treatment costs, and the state still has to build roads, schools, hospitals, etc. for taxpayers' money. The state budget is not a fountain of gold, and the fact that we are alive at all, although not everyone would be able to...

my bet: a drop of 3 points just because my coach once started bringing candy to my workouts :hilarious:

same problem. Over the past year, the dose of my basal has decreased by almost half, and the dose of bolus by about 30%. I have no idea why, because I haven't changed anything in my physical activity or diet. It seems that you just need to watch how the body reacts and change the dose depending...

Less than 1.1 it is hypoglycemia and very dangerous. Usually at 0.8 people fall unconscious. But it is possible that this is a device error. Just in case, drink sweet tea if it happens again

for healthy people, this is not hypoglycemia. Diabetics consider this hypo only because they have insulin, which they have injected, and blood glucose can drop dangerously low. This won't happen to you because your pancreas won't continue to secrete insulin when your bg is low (exogenous insulin...
