hopefully this is in the right place... now I'm training harder at the gym, and trying to get leaner, ive started using PhD diet whey, which is a protein shake with the added benefit of things like green tea extract and such like. now it's probably a coincidence but I started it yesterday...

I'm going to apologise in advance as this is primarily a rant with a desperate shout for advice! I'm starting to have had enough of this t1 lark tbh. on the pump for over a year and the last few days for no reason I can fathom my levels are soo erratic reaching really high then normal then low...

Evening all It might be the warmth we've been having it maybe I just require slightly less insulin for some reason at the moment, so I've been running temps for a while now but it's a bit of a pain to keep doing. So what's the best way to work out your hourly amount to create a reduction, if...

Anyone else having their levels affected by this heat atm? They've got a mind of their own at the moment! Hypos at night (always wake up) so high in morning, yesterday at work was worse. Changed everything and it slowly settled. Can't seem to get a even playing field atm.

Recently moved to an accuchek combo from the animas 2020 and have exactly the same basal rate as before. But the difference is my levels on the new pump are so knackered and high I don't know what to do. I'm fed up of feeling ill and worrying about them running high. I just cannot understand how...

Recently moved to the accuchek combo (last week) after an extended trial on the animas 2020. Same basal rate as before same total daily basal but levels are all over the place! Was starting to get them nice and even on the animas (ok, better than previously but not perfect) and the change has...

Does anyone else find it really painful to insert infusion sets sometimes? Quite frequently lately when I try and put a fresh one in, it's really painful and I have to stop an try another site. All the places tried are "virgin" sites so to speak.

Hi all I need some ideas. I desperately need something small ish that will fit in pockets that I can eat and will release carbs slowly for while I'm at work. I usually have to set a temp basal rate (pump user) of - 70% but am having to do less still and still dropping. It's really active my job...

Ok so this isn't every time I eat but on a fair few occasions, I'll eat and test 2 hours later and be at around 12-14. I'll probably be around 7-8 before. Could this be a wrong ratio or rates etc? Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I couldn't see if this has been asked before, and hopefully it's in the right place! I recently (yesterday!) bought one of those electronic cigarette things as there's nothing quite like multiple chest infections and getting rigged up to an ECG like giving you a push.....! Has anyone noticed a...

Evening all New to this forum, diabetic for three years now. Know very few people with T1 (or T2 for that matter!) and the extra support would be beneficial I think, a problem shared and all that :lol: Currently on a pump "trial" but hopefully will be able to argue to keep it as it is much...
