Hi.
I am a relatively newly diagnosed LADA on basal/ bolus regime. I am a reluctant but regular runner and have noticed a strange phenomena this week in the cold weather. I've noticed the cold making my legs harder to operate (!) asthma a bit more sensitive to the cold and heart frantically trying to keep up with what I normally manage relatively comfortably. On top, I get home and bs are in teens grrrr. Does anyone know why this is happening and what I am to do. Want to keep running- psychologically it keeps me sane, helps me feel good about my ailing body and keeps the weight from ballooning! I'm thinking cold constricts vessels in the lungs/ blood resulting in my heart having to work harder and my liver dumping sugar to keep up with the extra energy demands in the cold. Does this sound plausible? Thanks in advance for getting to he end of this query and responding if you can
