Yes 1carb = 15gram carbohydrates

But I actually like eating carbs alot but I hate the spikes if I underestimate the insulin....

My blood sugar is generally lower if I don't drink and I eat because I inject immediately Everytime before I eat even I I take a unit less or a unit more.

Are you insulin sensitive, do you exercise?? What doses lantus do you inject?? And humalog/carb??

The beer causes spikes and then brings it down abit....then I finish all the beer then correct the highs later....[emoji17] And iv been doing this since 2011 I gotta change things this year.

I test 6 to 8 times a day (blood sugar) but if I don't eat I test about 4 times a day just to see what my basal insulin is doing.

I don't test for ketones, just blood sugar.

I think beer is my problem, because if I drink beer even if it's 6litres then I don't eat the whole day and I don't inject any insulin, anyone else here do the same thing??

Let's see 12 x 15 yes say about 180g - 250g of carbohydrates, what a normal non diabetic person would generally eat in a day. So if I eat 4 - 6carbs then I eat 60 - 90g in a day

Pearcream do you get headaches?? Because iv had type 1 for 9 years and you had it for 18 year's. Unless it's just because my sugar is mainly high

Who here lives on a normal carb diet with well controlled sugar's most of the time ?? Type 1's

The body doesn't even want 8 or 10.....so 17 and 18 is TERRIBLE!!!!!! try to keep it between 4 and 7 without hypos it's far from easy but your life depends on it.....I was careless and now im paying the price[emoji17]

Who else here has migraine type pain on a daily basis?? And do you perhaps know the cause? It's pain that changes places in my head or is all over.....I think its because my sugar is constantly high I'm not sure.

Consider splitting your basal insulin and changing to lantus. And inject 2/3 morning and 1/3 night but take enough in the morning I take 13 morning and 6 at night....I know diabetics differ with regard to insulin but I'm giving you a suggestion. I used to take 7:7 or 8:8 or 9:9 lantus but it...

Same with me also always have white discharge under the foreskin basically everyday

Thanks....are your blood sugar's mainly under 10??

Sugars mainly 15 or above....I drink little or no water.....I mainly drink diet coke 2 to 4 litres a day. and 3 litres or more, beer a day.

These pass days the pain I feel in my head is terrible.....type 1 for almost 9 years poorly controlled diabetes......my daily diet is 3 litres beer 2 to 4 litres diet coke..... little or no water....... Less than 10 carbs. What is causing so much head pain???? Sugar levels mainly 15 or above.

But dr Bernstein really inspires me he lived so long with this terrible disease....but the pain I feel really discourages me.

I basically never drink water......just beer and diet coke
