[QUOTE="cpea, post: 2251004, member: 381384"] I am not a doctor or medically trained - I just want to say that at the start. I am a relatively recently diagnosed Type 1, I lost a stack of weight before diagnosis - and like you thought it was great - and have put on about 20lbs since starting to take insulin. But then I also did a dafne course and started eating more carbohydrates than I had been doing (I was initially diagnosed as Type 2)! Please, please, please contact your specialist diabetes team. I know there's a terrible virus going round, but you need some help. If you can do it by yourself start taking your lantus again and don't miss your quick acting. If you want to manage your weight you can naturally use less insulin by eating fewer carbs and learning how to exercise to manage sugar levels (easier said than done, I know), but the long term health risks of keeping your glucose levels high aren't worth it. In fact your daily life is worse if you have high blood sugars - your palpitations, hair loss and moods for example. Please seek help and take good care hugs x [/QUOTE]
