Hi there, I realize this post is a few weeks old, but I just wanted to comment either way, -I also hit 3.6 yesterday with no hypo symptomes at all, -I've had 3.9 fasting a couple mornings and felt fine as well. I am on a lowcarb diet, I usually eat very few carbs for breakfast and lunch, and...

Thank you @LucySW @tim2000s I have one serving of the caserole left, I'll see if the same thing happens again and if it does, I'll split the insulin dose in 2 next time I eat pasta, and save some to be injected after the meal. (Or avoid pasta/pizza, I think 6 shots a day is enoguh :) )

Thank you for all welcoming replies and it's comforting to know I am not alone having this LADA thingy entering my life as a complete surprise. I have already found lots of good information here and as a newly diagnosed I am so glad there are both "experienced" diabetics and newbies that share...

Thanks for info and tips @Roytaylorjasonfunglover :) I know that LADA type comes with some additional challenges,, I am reading and trying to learn as much as I can, but not all at once because my brain will soon overload ;)

Hi @Andy41 and thanks for commenting! :) I have yet to experience my first hypo, -although it's just been half a week though, managing bolus/basal-dosages on my own, so I guess it won't be long :) I agree , it is a nuisance carrying the stuff around and remembering everything, but I am...

Thanks @Brunneria , that made sense, -very useful to know about that effect! :)

Hi @Daibell and thanks alot for replying. The meal that I ate had 24g fat (and 53g protein, 50 g carbs, 7g fiber (this includes 2 pieces of licorice for dessert). Maybe this was enough fat to slow to slow down the carb-absorbtion. Do you think so? Maybe it is smart to eat first and then set the...

Thank you @himtoo :) I ate a tomato-pasta-meat-zucchini caserole with some cream in it (not very much cream but it was 20% fat). I did calculate the carbs pretty accurately (used an app) and included carbs for all the ingredients. It added up to 40 g carbs for the portion of caserole. I also...

Hi all, I have type 1.5 (LADA). Diagnosed 1.5 weeks ago. Anyone knows how the BG level can jump from 6.5 to 13 in 1.5 hours? I had dinner at 18:30 and BG before dinner was 6.5. Two hours later, at 20:30 BG was 6.4. So far so good, but then, 1,5 hours later (3,5 hours after dinner) BG level was...

Hi all, My name is Stine, I am 40 years old from Norway. I was diagnosed with diabetes type 1.5 LADA just over one week ago. It took me completely by surprise as noone in my family has any types of diabetes and I am not in the typical risk of getting the type 2, so I never suspected I would ever...

3.9. Too low, -I have a headache!

Hi @Cjburny I was also recently diagnosed Type 1, just 1,5 weeks ago. (Type 1.5 to be specific, but they treat it as a type 1) After a week in the hospital meeting only confused nurses and doctors, I finally got meetings with both the diabetes specialist and several meetings with a diabetes...
