Last two or three weeks I've been having so many issues I am starting to lose control. I am on long term medication for depression but recently started to feel very low, staying in bed, not doing bg readings, eating rubbish, not wanting to go out and very teary. I felt like there was no point to anything anymore.
Two weeks later, after seeing my GP, I am slowly levelling out again, although my mood isnt 100% yet but despite getting back into my routine with the DAFNE ratios, testing etc my bg levels are everywhere (high and low), I keep testing positive for keytones (the highest was ++++) and now I've got oral thrush which I have never had before. I've only ever had keytones once and that was when I was diagnosed diabetic. I've been a type 1 for 18 years and consider myself to have been very lucky (up until now) to not have any major issues due to the diabetes.
I am overweight which has always been an issue. I am only taking Ramipril, Simvastatin and Citalopram. I just feel that I have lost control and I am so fed up with ratios, testing, keytones, feeling like hammered poop and I feel like just sticking two fingers up to the diabetes and eating whatever I want, no holds barred!
