    CGMs and constantly checking them

    I've been using Libre for 2.5years. At first I had 82 readings a day :cool: (16-17hrs awake time so you calculate) After a year, 30ish. Now it can go as low as 3-4, especially on busy days. Although my sugars have been good with all these combinations, so I'm kind of aware what's happening...

    Switching from Humalog to Lyumjev

    Thanks for the info, I stick Humalog 45mins before breakfast and eat less carbs than for other meals (2 insulin units less). As for the lunch and dinner I aim to stick Humalog 15mins before except when eating meat with carbs I inject later, maybe just before a meal, as I get a hypo or 5mmol and...

    Switching from Humalog to Lyumjev

    Hi, everyone. This morning I went to my endocrinologist annual check and she told me I can get Lyumjev instead of Humalog, as it is faster and should be easier to manage. I handled Humalog quite well (TIR 2 96 2 and hba1c 5.5%) so didn't feel I need a change, but still think it might be useful...

    Running abdomen pain side stitch in the afternoon

    Hi, I've been running for 4-5 years now gradually increasing my weekly distances. Now I'm comfortable with 25k a week. I don't get too tired or spend too much time with 25. I think I'll stick to it, although it is getting pretty hot now, so I'll probably do more swimming... I've started...

    smoking cessation (I feel like I'm losing it)

    Hi everyone, I decided to give up smoking 75 days ago, it is the first time I went past the first 3 days. When I was hospitalized for T1 I managed to get some tobacco on day 3 in the hospital... :rolleyes: Feeling quite good after first week went past, up until a few weeks ago when I just got...

    Libre 2 reader

    I don't doubt that the phone is great, I just don't want to be forced to have it on me all the time. Sometimes I feel like using a phone with buttons, or no phone at all. I have the app installed and use it occasionally...

    Libre 2 reader

    Hi everyone, hope you are all doing well. I have a libre 1 currently and am happy with it. I like using a reader and not the phone. I don't feel like being that dependent to phones and the reader is much smaller and I can use it without fiddling, just has one button. They will start giving us...

    New diagnosed with type 2 but running London marathon next week - advice pls!

    Good luck with the marathon. Before I was diagnosed I'd go running and feel great for a few days and after would feel worse, thought I just needed exercise to keep my stamina up to do everything in life. :) Didn't have a clue that by running I'd lower my sugars and that would keep me feeling...

    Alcohol

    I drink occasionally. Beer, wine or spirits, don't like being drunk so drink moderately. My main problem with alcohol is that it messes up my stomach afterwards. In the old days (without T1), I'd eat before sleep after drinking. But now with T1 I don't like injecting insulin shortly before...

    Covid induced T1 diabetes

    There was some talk on the news about Covid causing temporary blood glucose problems, but not real T1 diabetes. So if he's got T1, then there is no going back... He'll have to learn to live with it, some find it easier to control than the others, but it is possible to lead a normal life and do...
