[QUOTE="joneill97, post: 1563505, member: 415883"] This week will be the first time I properly go "out out" i.e. Clubbing since being diagnosed with type one. From what people have said and what I've observed from casual drinking, the risk isn't high blood sugar but low blood sugar when drinking - I've even been told by people including nurses etc that it's better to let it go high for one night than risk low My 24hr insulin is around 10pm so I can do that before going out which is perfect. In terms of when I go out I was just going to take some jelly babies in case I feel it going low as I assume there's no point in taking any of my insulin pens as there won't be a need for insulin? Just looking for reassurance :) Then in terms of drinking I've heard it's best to do spirits with diet mixers and then every few drinks get a "carby" drink? [/QUOTE]
