    Lantus drops and vitamins/minerals

    I never had those when using Lantus but I am happy with Tresiba now.Enough with one per 24 hours does not behave with the dips lantus had ( after 22 hours no effect)

    Lantus drops and vitamins/minerals

    So just to get this right, you seem to need less insulin on vitamins? If that is what you mean, I also have experience with this. I would not stop the vitamins but reduce my insulin though. Just seems a good idea to correct any low levels.I have tried again and again to check my levels but it...

    My Fiasp Findings So Far...

    I find after I started using Fiasp my sensitivity increased too.I think it is because I am now better range when I take insulin and that seems to make a big difference.Also when it is too high post meal it is easy to get it down without "hanging around" for 30-40 min too high.I am really happy...

    Petition for Freestyle Libre on NHS

    I am sorry to come across like that, it is not better or worse. And I totally think anyone,whatever type, who actively takes an interest and try, should be rewarded by getting the tecnology that helps them. It is tricky to say exactly how a doctor or nurse (diabetic nurse has often the most one...

    Petition for Freestyle Libre on NHS

    Just to be clear, yes EVERYBODY with any form of diabetes should get the test strips they need.And guidance in how to use them wisely to be able to learn from the reading. However, type one and type 2 are different, and living with type one IS different because the hypos actually can be...

    Petition for Freestyle Libre on NHS

    This discussion is getting pretty depressing.I am so provoked by the referral to type one diabetics as just a small fraction etc. In my opinion, there should be focus on lifestylechanges and bs friendly nutrition for all type 2's.This can be completely be kept under control like this and it does...

    Petition for Freestyle Libre on NHS

    What is very good, is that when you are really really tired of the whole process, almost 30 years of measuring bs, and slowly the measuring becomes less and less frequent, with the libre, it is not hard at all. Especially if in a birthdayparty for kids, on the bus, the beach,I do it. Even if it...

    Petition for Freestyle Libre on NHS

    Signed!! Thankyou for sharing. Agree it maybe is too much, but at least part fund it.Now I pay almost all my testing myself, the strips used before are saving NHS lots.But that is not balanced.At least fund the equivalent of what strips would have cost me.Feel punished for caring about the...

    Working withdabetes

    What do you want to do? Prioritise your health, remind them that you are better because you are having a more settled routine and this is risky changing. Some diabetics just are better with routine. I am starting work again in a shop soon after three years away (as a mum), and shop work is...

    DAFNE

    Also really got lots of good information on the course.And if you can use the course to get bs lower, it will give you energy to help fight the depression. It will surprise you how much nicer it feels to if not necessarly get it perfect, have it closer to an average of 10.I am just saying that...

    I really want a baby!

    Just wanted to say I recommend a c-section if you have retinopathy.Just from personal experience, my labour took a long time and it was not good for my eyes.The pressure from actually pushing caused some issues.It is all fine now, after 4 1/2 years, but it did scare me.xx
