    I can imagine the length of the queue to your orthopedist if all diabetics decide that he should cut their nails :hilarious:

    strange myths about diabetes

    I just read this https://www.diabetes.co.uk/blog/2020/11/11-myths-people-with-diabetes-are-sick-of-hearing/ I've heard all the myths except that we can't cut our toenails. Where did this belief come from? How diabetes can prevent us from cutting our toenails at all?! By the way, I didn't see...

    Type 1 Book or e-book for insulin calculation

    insulin? maybe you meant carbs? The dose of insulin is selected individually and may differ tenfold for people of the same weight. Doctors usually prescribe a starting dose based on the patient's weight, but then this dose is adjusted, and given that children at this age grow very quickly, I...

    Type 1 diabetic for 18 years, finally have given up and wonder if anyone else feels like I do

    ****, my diabetes is also 18 years old and you and I are almost the same age, sometimes my diabetes is well controlled, sometimes it seems that it is completely impossible to control it. Your story is really scary to read. It's doubly scary because it's the same 18 years as mine... I don't know...

    Complications 15 years after diagnosis?

    my diabetes is 18 years old. About 5 years after the diagnosis, my feet began to freeze very much, even in the heat, I thought it was polyneuropathy, but recently I went to a neurologist and he said that I did not have polyneuropathy. This year, after covid, my vision dropped by about 1 diopter...

    Discussion New avenue for a Type 1 cure

    I want to believe that we will see a complete cure for diabetes... Do we still have ethical problems with the use of stem cells after the discovery of Yamanaka?

    Insulin glargine

    Your bg has dropped by 7 units. Does this mean that insulin doesn't work? In my opinion, this means an insufficient dose. Of course, 18 is still a very high bg, but it's much better than 25 high bg is difficult to lower. It is quite logical that your doctor did not want to kill you, immediately...

    Im just so done with everything

    everything is ok, it happens to everyone. Not for the first and not for the last (unfortunately) time :( your doctor doesn't want to prescribe you a pump with such terrible bg jumps? Sometimes it seemed to me that my insulin wasn't working either, but not enough to double the dose right away...

    Im just so done with everything

    first, calm down, because your stress increases your bg. Secondly, exams can always be retaken, but even if you can't get an education, life won't end there, and you can live happily ever after without a university. What kind of insulin do you use? Perhaps it is necessary to adjust the dose or...

    Does T1 slow down aging?

    I started with ficus. Once my books fell on it and broke off half of its leaves, so I can't call myself a good mom even for a plant. But it's still alive :)

    Does T1 slow down aging?

    I can't make up my mind to have a cat, let alone a child :hilarious: But I can't help but admit the fact that I am inspired by how well everything is with you

    Diabetes documentary

    wow, great movie! May I also share a cool movie about insulin, more precisely, about its discovery? It's old and not a documentary , but I really like it

    Does T1 slow down aging?

    Wow, cool! TWO pregnancies and everything is fine with you and the children. If the information in your profile is correct, then you got pregnant for the first time at 30. I've always been told that if I want to give birth, it's better to do it before 25 and only once. Although I decided for...

    Does T1 slow down aging?

    perhaps you are referring to this research (I don't know if it is possible to post a link on the forum) https://www.intechopen.com/chapters/24183 do I understand correctly that you inherited diabetes, but your diabetes did not affect your children at all? has pregnancy had a big impact on your...

    Does T1 slow down aging?

    Yes, it's clearer now. Thank you very much! If they understand this, with an early diagnosis of diabetes, we will be able to cure a person without insulin and operations, won't we? Although T1 is usually diagnosed too late when we are already in a precomatous state (because who will worry that...
