Hi All, I am interested in finding out what Daily Graph looks like for anyone who is Type 2 and using CGM. Also taking Metformin and reasonable amount of Carbs (30-40 grams). Just want to do some comparison of after meal blood sugar spikes. If it will be helpful if you can share screenshots or...

4000 IU of vitamin D - this something new for me. No one from my diabetic team discussed this. Is it supplement tablets that you take every day and do they work. Thinking about it few months before I got diagnosed they told me I had less vitamin D in had prescribed me 1 months of medication...

Hi @barrym, @Hertfordshiremum, @Bubbleblower I find easy to manage my diabetes on low carbs and occasional Bolus insulin. I have been reading about other type 1 diabetes and struggle they have to put up with managing sugar levels. Thinking about it stresses me out and gives me anxiety and not...

Thanks for your thoughts @Hertfordshiremum. Well when I get spikes I dont get any symptoms or may be I am not feeling them that much and so that is not my concern. I am just thinking if I get these spikes is it doing any internal damages which I am not aware or now but will show up in the future.

Thanks for reply Jonathan. Currently not taking Bolus Insulin. Will the affect retaining beta cells? Worried if it will make it worse in the future.

Hi, I have seen you post regarding you being on Lantus only for over a year and controlling your type 1 with diet and exercise only. I was diagnosed type 1 beginning this year and in similar situation. Doctor and Nurse says continue the what I am doing but it will come to point where I will...
