A day in the life of a T1D...


I am on the buses non stop, so the countryside buses on a Monday, that should be fun nearly always late and sometimes they don't turn up ....... but that's the scream thread really
 
No reason not to. A week today folks. Get your recording hats prepared!
 
likewise -- am on the case with pen in hand
 
Well guys, just a few hours to go. Get your recording hats on and make a note of every time you think about or do something relating to T1D tomorrow on Monday 16th November! Lots of you said you were in... Here we go!
 
Hi. Just woken up and read this. I'll give it a go.
 
I am so doing this - keeping my notes, will post later
 
I will try and do this, lots going on regarding my elderly dad. Will write as much as possible
 
Am in.
Had an unexpectedly high blood sugar this morning, so that's a good start!
 
Yeah I'm in as well...starting at 1am when my CGM alarm went off to tell me I was low! Could be an interesting day...
 
I'm typing up my day as I go, except it isn't going well with regards BS control, hey ho!
 
I'm really not having a great day...in so many ways...late night hypo's...early morning highs...forgotten test strips...spare meters with dead batteries...and tears before breakfast...this is a diabetes day from hell...mine will sound like a total whinging session...for that reason I'm wondering if I should start again tomorrow instead...what do you guys think?
 
no stick with it Natalie! We all have bad days for one reason or another although your day does sound 'interesting' and would love to read the post match write up!
 

Stick with it! Although we do have good days, a bad day is a common/occasional occurrence for us, so let's tell it how it is. Why wouldn't we? It's not whinging, it's life with diabetes....
 
Well said. I've moved back to a very low carb diet today after having a fair few carbs and my meal time timing is completely off, so I've not had the smoothest of rides either. Document it all. I'll start a topic in this forum section so people can post their days in the life.
