I hope so do you suffer with it ? Are you aware of any diabitc Brian damage that could cause such extended symptoms ?

@CarbsRok indeed I have they did them at the hospital and said they were all ok my blood pressure was the average rating so nothing unusual there I find it strange that a high blood sugar reading could do something like this but maybe it's a factor of that and anxiety ? As I have had some stress...

Thanks @cz_dave The thing is my sugar is normal but I still feel this way you reckon it could be underlying anxiety ? Or depression ? That is causing it as I have read somewhere that it could be the case ?

It is indeed scary if that was the case @CarbsRok it wouldn't last for 3 days ? It's a nightmare feeling Iv literally tried exercising drinking lots of waters my blood sugars have been running at 6 and 8 really so don't understand what is going on could it be some kinda permanant cognitive...

I have some how come down with brain fog Iv been reading everywhere about what it could be related to and I can't figure it out basically I had a high blood reading and then suddenly once I had combatted the high I felt all spacy my blood sugar wasn't low it was 6.6. So I couldn't work it out...

Yeah I am talking about correction doses I know but I have only recently got my ratios right but this has taken me a very long time due to my busy lifestyle which means I'm either running high or dropping really low so it's been a real rollarcoaster but was just wondering if the correction doses...

Hi Iv been taking insluin to combat highs and I'm just wondering what are the long term complications from this obviously I know about hypos and that kinda thing but I mean should I be doing that I just do it occasionally when my blood spikes to like 10 so I can keep a steady 5 to 8 reading ??

im 25 years old and was wondering if erection problems such as the vascular nature can occur in such young diabetics ? my a1c is 5.5 and my control is good now where as it hasn't been really more of a roller-coaster but now its in normal ranges i dont get morning wood and can maintain a erection...

i just want to say i now have full control of my sugars now for the last week i have been ranging at a steady 7.5 to 5.5 with no unexpacted highs or lows and i am now getting my hypo feeling back too so everything is good i am now carb counting and have now halfed my insulin intake due to...

cheers @iHs and @azure i will try the basal test in the morning and see what readings i get then i can start to get it back on track iv not had a low reading for two days now so i must be doing something right i have dropped my bolus dosage down dramatically which at first wil cause high...

@azure yeah im going to have a whack at sorting my bolus out as im currently on 16 units of it and think that may be whats causing my 2.1 reading during the day think if i drop it down a notch it might sort it out i am also taking way too much daytime insulin so maybe i should look at ratios...

So I should be taking far less humolog ? How come you can eat a pizza and a dessert with 7 units of insluin if I did that I would be in the 20s i will try and see if this method works when should I be taking my levmir ? @CarbsRok the only reason I take a set dosage at the moment as try to eat to...

@iHs @Omnipod could constant lows be caused by a tumor ? and how does the two insluin injections work and how would i use basal for meals ? iv had diabities for 7 years now I'm currently taking 11 units in morning 7 at mid day and 15 in evening and 16 levmir at night i am trying my best to...

thank you yeah i will try and increase my rate of control however it is proving difficult i am having less hypos now but i still can't work out why my sugars are still dropping to 2.1 and so on I'm currently taking 11 units in morning 7 in afternoon and 15 in evening as i find i am constantly...

ok thank you i will try and see if i can get better control from what i have read thank you to everyone who posted

yeah i understand this but it is difficult believe me i am trying but until the doctor gets off his backside and actually starts taking notice of *** is going on with me i dont think it will change as my pancreas either has a tumor giving rise to the reason why im constantly low or my body is...

I can't be taking the wrong amounts of insluin because if I don't take that my sugars are chronically high would rather be low than high tbh causes me alot more pain and damage when my blood sugars are high that's why I was saying the ratios don't work because I take large ratio of insluin and...

Hello i am 25 year old male and am a type 1 going on 7 years now i am having strange symptoms which have come on in the last month i have noticed that i like drinking alot be it water or no added sugar squash i drink most likely around 15 cups a day and am going the toilet around 15 times a day...

@tim2000s how will brain damage occur and also how could death occur ? would it be in the form of a collapse and then coma or could it happen almost instantaneously ? how can i avoid the 2.1 lows when i simply cannot feel them ? also i had better control today i only had two lows today the rest...

That could be a potential i guess but its so difficult to stop having a hypo everyday my blood was 2.1 4 times today and it was high 3 times today and thats a good day :( my current dosage is 10 units morning , 8 units dinner , 15 dinner and 16 levimir at night :( feel like the doctors cant help...
