I've Ben on tribeca and lantus. Lantus gave me a rash, which was really weird, and of course it stings. I can't remember why they changed me to levemir, but I think it's the only one that the only issue is the amount x

Hiya, I have been on different types of insulin and these were the same. I do go to a diabetes specialist clinic which is where I got the information from. They are trying different things before metformin. Why my diabetes must be so complicated! X

I have been considered for a pump but it's a lengthy process. Currently doing my carb count classes.

Try not to scare me! ;) will look into it a bit more, I'm quite sensitive to some medication, just not insulin!

Will have a look, I get alot of stomach cramps anyway! I'm on 25 novorapid and 55 levemir lol, hoping to cut that down as for age and size, that's a fair bit!:)

Thanks for your reply, sounds alot like me actually. May have to discuss this with my DSN. I'm not sure which insulin it would be but she currently assumes both, as I'm on at least 20 novorapid for just a sandwich or something small, and 52 at night will take me just into good readings. Doing...

Pen and paper would be awesome!x

I play minecraft on the xbox :)

Hello all! I'm type one diabetic, have been now for eight years. I'm on novorapid and levemir and take an extremely high dose of this and it barely affects my blood sugars. My DSN is putting my on metformin, I've read this is for people with type two and overweight. I'm underweight at the...

Might have had different amount of sweat residue on your hands, always wash them. Apart from the above, it could be that x

You need to move around your tummy, from your left side all the way to the right, imagine straight lines from one side all the way to the right going under your belly button. Then again but jumping over your belly button. Then above too. Also the back of your arms, just rest in on your knee...

Love them, but not the soft bits!

Hiya, My names Hollie. I'm from Southampton and I'm 19. I was diagnosed when I was 11, however after leaving school reached a burn out, and was very neglecting of my diabetes. I'm looking to get back in the swing of things and looking for some other diabetes to talk to, send each other blood...

Cake and cookies and chocolate and lots of sugary fizzy drinks! Yumyumyum

Also, more companies are more accepting than others. If he writes a cover letter with an application explaining the condition, the control and reference off his DSN or doctor, many jobs would accept him.

On cruise ships they have enough food and medical services to protect workers and tourists. However, they might seem it to be a "burden" if he has a history of many hypo's. If he can prove his bloods sugars are constant and rarely suffers hyper/hypo's then his chances of getting a job could be...

I touch it sometimes and it doesn't seem to affect my blood sugar result! If you're worried just make sure you wash your hands first or try pick it up with something on your hands like your shirt sleeve, then theres so finger print of anything and oyu can wipe it. Though I don't think they'd...

Thank you for all the lovely stuff said! I think it probably is the blood sugars coming down. I've also had some terrible migraines that pain killers aren't helping. All day, but i'm sure these will go as soon as i'm used to it. Random test, 6.0! Proud moment, even texted my mum! :D

I've recently started trying to get my head down with my diabetes after having a bit of a "burnout". The past few days my bloods haven't gone over 7.0 However, when my bm's are around 4.5 - 6.0 I've noticed i've been very snappy and irritable. Not just constantly though, one minute i've been...
