Hi Guys Not sure if anyone has posted this, it’s an interesting documentary about insulin production.

Hi So are there any updates to this development? It’s been over a year and just wondering if anyone has heard anything yet?

Hi Shadybaby I am not experienced in early childhood Diabetes but the disparity in range of sugar blood readings you are getting for your child certainly are not normal. People without diabetes normally have very stable blood glucose levels throughout the whole day. I think you have done...

Thank UKT1 and no not at all, I registered for the forum to be able to communicate with people about particular matters regarding diabetes what I face. I find it really encouraging and helpful when you reply and ask questions as I generally don’t talk to anyone about diabetes (people just...

Hi UKT1 I gave it up because it would send my BS levels really high late morning, early afternoon. This is me despite carb counting. By lunch time my bs levels would still be really high and I wouldnt know what to do (to correct or not) The fact that it can take 2 hours for peak effect of...

Oh wow yes that does help, Thanks Urban Racer. I find this really fascinating. I’ve had type 1 now for 27 years but never had this explained to me. I imagine porridge oats (made with full fat milk) can have the same effect as pizza ? It’s my favourite breakfast item which I have had to give...

(I'm...

Thanks Urban Racer. I just can't think of what circumstance that would be useful. If someone was planning on eating something for a period of time every hour or two ? (Like a party)

Hey everyone Just came across a new term ive never heard before and was wondering if anyone could explain what it means. Grateful for any help.

Encouraging, and I hope it continues. Well done on the gym sessions as well!

Take into account also the “dawn spike” which happens for me at around 5am. It could be the same for you. I can literally go to sleep with no food and with near hypo level blood glucose but still wake up in the 7-8 range of m/mmols.

Yes that’s the one. The CGM manufacturers UK websites are still referring to it for info on UK accessibility via NHS so I just found it odd and curious how it’s just not accessible anymore.

For weeks the website was performing weirdly and having different kinds of search engines, now it’s been down for several days and there is no info on the JDRF website either... I gained most of my background knowledge on CGM access in UK from the website so was wondering if anyone had any...
