Hello I'm due for my pfizer soon and I'd like to know if anyone had a hypoglycaemia as a reaction to it. If so, how bad was it and when did it happen?

As soon as I woke up, I grabbed my insulin and ran away to meet some friends. I didn't want to stay at home and it did make a difference. I slept like a baby afterwards although my BGL misbehaved a bit but I had the highest at 10.9.. still better than the 24 I had yesterday!

I did need this. Thank you :)

I thank everyone for their concerns. Perhaps this is why I turned to this community in my distress. I did not correct after the 13.7 and woke up 12.0. I literally slept on the floor of the living room because my bedroom was simply uninhabitable due to the odors (her apartment is across the...

Hey everyone.. I came here for mostly a vent but I need to get things off my chest. Today, my old neighbour was found dead in her apartment alone and it has been about 10 days before she was discovered. As tragic as it sounds, this just affected me so deeply and has created havoc on my BSL... I...

Hello, thanks for the mention @kitedoc I did have some horrible times with Lantus but till this day it remains a mystery as to what happened. One day I can't hold 10 units without going hypo the other I am at 16 units (currently). Literally, only the season has changed. In my case however...

I do air shot each time I insert a needle. The philosophy behind it is to make sure that the needle isnt blocked. I do 1 unit not 2 and it works perfectly as it should.

Agree we are all different. I really didn't get into deep details with this issue. I just have a general idea which is stated above.

Sweden for instance 21 hours fasting period... at dark, they barely eat anything and just before they start fasting they eat the huge meal (usually it is a main meal after fasting is over and usually about 8 or so hours later depending on region there is another meal just before dawn when...

Humulin or Tresiba or Lantus

Kind madam, this question gets asked so many times around the start of Ramadan every year. Having the appropriate background, I can only ask you to refrain from fasting all together (even some scholar argue that it is forbidden for us, diabetics, to fast during Ramadan for it does more harm...

Hello, what insulin do you take?

My biggest fear is that nazism will rise again. I do hope not...

Highest 28 lowest 15.5 Struggling a bit at the moment and feel very drained

Those symptoms are exactly the same as mine 10 years ago before I got diagnosed. Vomiting, wetting the bed, gallons of water, weight loss, wounds not healing etc...

I'm a college student in his teenage years; not the best age to have diabetes. Adolescence itself is hard; add diabetes to the mix and good luck! Imagine to inject in a crowded cafeteria infront of at least 100 other strangers. Well that's what I do. I got the funny looks but afterall they are...

Do not panic it could be or not be diabetes but staying safe is better than being sorry

Hello, We are not able and authorized to make diagnosis online. This should strictly be your doctor's job. However, those symptoms do seem like diabetes; weight loss, increased appetite and reduced wound healing are also other symptoms for diabetes. The most important thing to do now is to go ti...
