Look forward to hearing more....

I just wipe with rubbing alcohol every now and again.

I use novorapid and lantus and am on a low carb, moderate protein diet. My weight never fluctuates more than 2 lbs at most. I get good results with novorapid, and I split my lantus into two doses during the day.

I loved the movie, and felt it all to be factual. Look at climate change. There are reasons behind it.... unless of course your head is buried in the sand. I know we don't need to eat meat - I have been vegan for 39 years and aside from having T1 (although I don't worry about complications...

I never get it. I go to bed mid 4's to mid 5's and wake up mid 4's to mid 5's. During the night it's anything between those numbers. I do fast from my last meal at 430 pm to when I get up, 7 am so a good 15 hours before I eat again. Big breakfast, most carbs of the day, then medium lunch and...

My GAD results took 2 months to come in. I am T1 but there was never really any doubt. C pep is only how much insulin the pancreas is still producing and you cannot determine your type by that alone. Are you thin? Active vs sedentary? Extra weight in the past? High carb, processed diet? These...

From my understanding the constantly regenerate but are killed off when they do.

I gave the reason that the diet prescribed to me was impeding my success ... My prescribed diet at diagnosis was an overload of bread, meat and very high carb things I never ate in over 30 years. Vegan for 38 years and after a month of whacky readings I just went back to what I had always done...

30 mmol thankfully! My endo is very happy. The nurse not so much. Too bad, I aim for normal non diabetic numbers. I am deathly afraid of any complications.
