[QUOTE="Rhys., post: 2353807, member: 523677"] Hello Sam, Story sounds very very familiar buddy. I think, you are experiencing a more extreme partial remission period right now, but sadly it's only temporary. After a few months of Insulin giving your remaining Beta Cells some rest, they have now started to kick into gear again. This can happen to some of us, which is great news for you if it's true! I was diagnosed in April 2020 and came off Insulin completely 2nd week of August 2020. I am still off insulin to date which is around 5 months. Mine could finish tomorrow, or next week, or next year, who knows? I know exactly what it feels like, feeling like you need to eat or drink, to avoid Hypo's. I was having a hypo, literally everyday around July / August. I would definitely consult with your nurse first thing Monday morning. Are you monitoring by finger pricking? Or do you have a libre system in your arm? What is your blood sugars, first thing in the morning at the moment? Just for some reassurance, please get yourself some " Blood Keytone Test Strips ". These will monitor your Keytones to see if there are any present. If your blood sugars are doing great and you have very low blood keytones, this will act as a much better reassurance for you mate. Any advice, if I take myself back 5 months, was to take it very easy on the Type 1 Diabetes Cure. Once my honeymoon started, I was trying to force my opinions on professionals and myself, that I am Type 2 or I am a 1 in a million chance of a complete remission. Personally, I would love to wish this for you and anyone who is type 1, but just be realistic and enjoy the next road, with a little less hassle. Mental health, is just as important as Diabetes. Main thing at the moment, if you are experimenting with your insulin / no insulin ( My doctor even encouraged this, within a sensible moderation ), check your blood keytones my man. All the best Rhys [/QUOTE]
