T1D & studying

[s-s-i-i-c-c-k-k]

I have been under a lot of pressure lately, as my University admission exam is coming up next week. My blood sugars have been at 250 for weeks. I raised my Lantus from 7 units to 9 and my Novo from 7 to 8. Have you also experienced high blood sugar during stressful studying sessions? How did you cope?

Hi!

I've just graduated so I had three years of this. What really helped me was just checking my blood sugar more often say after every 1.5hrs of studying plus keeping to a routine and making sure I exercise!!

I increase my lantus dose during stressful/ exam periods as well good luck for your exams!
