If you think that 20 years ago I had a cgm or at least a cool blood glucose meter, you are very wrong :hilarious: . We had something like this moreover, these strips had to be cut into three thinner parts, because they were very expensive

May I share a meme on this topic? In fact, the fact that you have elevated protein scares me even more, because screenshots of your blood glucose graphs make me think something like "wow, how cool! Can diabetes really be controlled so well?!". I've never been able to make my schedule so...

If he hadn't said "for life", I would have decided that he prescribed me some homeopathic medicines just to calm me down :D But probably when a patient comes to you and starts a conversation with the phrase "I have type one diabetes for 19 years" nephropathy is the most obvious assumption...

2g, but I always thought that nephropathy should be accompanied by high blood pressure, and I have it below normal. On the other hand, why else can there be protein in the urine? Is protein in the urine always an indicator of poor kidney function? Should I retake the analysis? I love cottage...

I recently discovered that I have proteinuria, I had urine test strips and they showed a value somewhere between the norm and the first green square, which was designated as 0.1 g/l. Scared, I did a protein analysis in daily urine, the protein value in urine was 36.9, which is higher than...

Maybe this will help Antje showed me these wonderful guys and now I'm a fan of them. To be honest, I eat cakes a little differently - I give an injection so that the insulin starts acting at the moment when I start eating sweets, those before starting such a meal, my cgm shows a vertical arrow...

well, the reference values of hba1 are 4.3-6.1, but for people on insulin, doctors consider higher values to be good results because hypoglycemia is more dangerous than hyperglycemia. If you don't feel when your bg is too low, you may just fall unconscious, but if you don't feel the spike...

5.7, I am surprised that this coincided quite accurately with the predictions of diabox

The formula does not change ;) the amount of carbs in your afternoon tea / 10* the number of bolus units you need for 10g of carbs. If this it is less than 1, then don't give the injection

you'd be surprised, but diabetics can even still eat pizza at parties with friends ;) As soon as they learn DAFNE you can do anything you want at all, just not always wihtout injections or sugar

what do you mean, "left in a coma"? The child was unconscious and the doctors said "it's okay, it's just a cold"? If it was 2011, then I'm really scared

it seems to me that in this situation it is much more selfish to think that other people should give up delicious food in order to support you. When you go on a diet, you don't ask him to give up his usual food, do you? While we are conscious, our diabetes is our problem, not our family's

last summer I had gel toenails on my feet and on my hands. No problems other than their cost :hilarious: . I have mild neuropathy

What does your son want to understand? It seems to me that all another person who does not suffer from diabetes needs to know is that if you lose consciousness, you need to inject glucagon, but here are some pictures for he and more fun

Antje is right, just give a few injections. Of course you need insulin for food. Snacks are more difficult than beer itself, because it usually contains a lot of both carbohydrates and fats, that is, it is a food that usually requires more than one injection. The strategy is about the same as...

for some reason, cardio causes me to have a strong decrease in bg, and strength exercises increase my bg. I can assume that you just stressed out and cortisol increased your bg. To be honest, when a person who has a lot of pets and works as a sailor calls herself couch potato, I feel like an...

you just got into a vessel, it happens sometimes, it's not scary

It is generally believed that autoimmune aggression is innate in us, but we need some kind of trigger (infection, stress, etc.) after which the immune system will start killing our beta cells, but I don't remember anything similar before I started diabetes. Do you remember what it was for you?

I think I have a new phobia :hilarious: . I don't feel the needle at all when I inject. Please tell me that the needle cannot be lost inside the body

raisins, for example, are quite tasty and healthy, quickly increases bg
