I’ve been using it for a couple of weeks and I like it! I like that it’s colour coded so I can visually see how my control is instead of just numbers on my blood monitor. With the hba1c I think it would be fairly accurate. I do think that if you’re having a hypo and you rest 15 mins after and...

So I’ve found this app and it seems good! I like a lot of the features it has and I especially like the estimated hba1c. Had anyone used this app and had the estimate close to reality?

West York isn't in York? Excuse my awful geography!!!! I don't have Facebook hun, I'm on here quite a lot though x

West Mids. Quite a way from you! I do love York though.

Hey Emma. I've been T1 for 21 years and I'm 26 too. Nice to meet you [emoji1303]

Published evidence. Look it up, people on pumps are more likely to end up with DKA because their basal is fast acting insulin instead of slow release. I wasn't scaremongering at all, at least not intentionally. I did say that it's been a long time since I've been on injections and that I...

Oh, how come you can get DKA within hours if a pump fails then? Is it because it's fast acting insulin in a pump instead of slow release?

Thank you very much [emoji1303]

Not having any background insulin at all puts you at an immense risk of developing DKA very quickly. Half a dose of long acting will prevent this from happening and if long acting has already been given than one and a half doses is better than a double dose, which of corse will lead to hypos.

Good luck! Hope you have a hypo/hyper free night!

I'd be concerned about getting ketones during the night from not having any back ground at all.

It's been a long time since I took injections (I'm on a pump) but I'd be inclined to do half a dose now and set an alarm in the night to test and if no hypos occur during the night you can be pretty certain you haven't done it so do the other half in the morning and then you're good to do the...

Hi James. I'm also a T1. Everything required for T1 diabetes is available on the NHS including test strips & insulin.

Thank you, yes she keeps me very busy! She's lovely though, such a kind and happy girl :) Sorry to hear about your blip, glad you're on the mend! Xx

Hey @13lizanne she's fine thank you! 18 months now! I don't know where the times gone, she's growing up far too fast. How's things with you?

Either or, I'm not fussed [emoji23]

Can't wait. I need a bit of Negan in my life [emoji7]

Are they to stop blood clots? I remember having to inject something after my section that bloody hurt but nothing before.

Thank you @Snapsy xxx

I must be insane!!! [emoji23] Thank you, just struggling a bit to get my bloods in order. I think I may be verging on the edge of obsession!
