Hi guys, I’ve been using the Libre 2 for a while now and have asked about the dexcom g7, the nurse gave me the dexcom one, Does anyone find it’s better or worse than the libre 2? I asked about the omnipod and the lastest version of the dexcom but I’m told that because I manage my levels well...

Yes, I wrote about this on another thread.

So great full for your reply, thank you [emoji4] I’m on day 3 and my bloods are excellent which is great. When I went into dka last time my bloods were in the normal range. It’s rarer but it does happen. However insulin keeps ketones at bay so I’ve rang diabetic nurse to give me a call to...

So last year I went low carb and I went into DKA and was told I’m not type 2 I’m type 1. It’s been a year and my weight is going up and up since starting insulin. I spoke to the diabetic nurse and she told me because I take 6 units of tresiba In a morning that I can low carb and it will cover me...

I’m asking if type 1 diabetics have gel nails on their toes

What about having gel nails on your toes anyone

Hi, not sure if this has been spoken about, nothing came up in the search bar. I love having my nails done, although ever since I was diagnosed I’m obsessed about my feet and being careful. The problem is I’m going on holiday and really want my toe nails done (pedicure) want to look nice in my...

It’s a weird not so wonderful thing having diabetes, definitely agree with that. Everyone should do what’s best for them and enjoy what you can. [emoji4]

I would never ever ever low carb again[emoji85] my experience was bad enough that it scared the life out of me. My ketones have been fine with fasting and I will always keep an eye on them still. I eat my breakfast in the morning and have a big dinner at around 2:00pm then I fast, I feel better...

Great link [emoji5] I had euglycemic ketoacidosis and it was an absolutely horrible experience. I don’t think many people know about it. A man on here told me I wasn’t in DKA because my levels were normal. I showed him the doctors letter and said yes I was. This site is brilliant for educating...

I’ve checked my ketones, I went into dka in august last year with normal levels so I’m very cautious about them this time. Thanks [emoji4]

Thanks for the responses guys [emoji5] I’ve set my fasting to start from 3pm and not to eat till 9am in the morning.. i take tresiba in a morning and fast acting nova rapid when I eat so hoping this will work well for me.

Hi guys, I did a bit of fasting when I was told I was type 2.. However now been told I’m type 1 I was just wondering if anyone does fasting! I have some weight to lose and didn’t mind the eating regime. Thought on this please and if it works for type 1s on insulin

I treat hypos with lift chewable tablets, they are fast acting and don’t make me feel horrible. Eating sweets made me feel sick.

Getting them re-done this weekend, I love them, sorry for the late pic and thank you guys for the advice [emoji173]️
