Thanks Click to expand... Do you have any diabetic complications like neuropathy or problems with circulation in your feet? If not, why would having T1 make a difference? T1's don't produce insulin so we inject what we don't make. If you do have diabetic complications in your feet/legs, this is a question to ask your diabetes nurse, they know your situation.
