I think I've had my best day of blood sugars today, since I first got T1D. So that's one out of 15,332 days.
The Freestyle Libre has to get the credit for this.
The only problem is, apart from a bit of guitar playing, and a trip to the shops, I didn't do much all day, so I was able to watch it closely. Also my blood sugar is back to behaving in a more predictable way, after a week of behaving badly, which makes it a lot easier. Which isn't really sustainable.
I suppose I could have had as a good a day at some point in those 42 years, but I very much doubt it.
Feels quite strange.
Is that drop the basal peaking?
Don’t believe it. Just went to close window in conservatory and ****** me one of the hinges is busted. Gently placed window back in the holeNew house, T, sounds like you'll be spending a lot of time in B&Q in the foreseeable future - the horrors and joys of DIY!
Hi @Mel dCP, I certainly find that the night basal program is pretty efficient, sometimes too efficient. At least it is easily remedied with a pump ! I wonder whether you could look at the thread 'Omnipod Issues' and provide any input, please ?Morning all! Like our @Robinredbreast I woke at a 2.8, so am sitting with a coffee waiting for it to come up. Had a bit of a hypo the last couple of mornings so will tweak the Omnibot a bit for then. I suppose it’s just (JUST! Who am I kidding? This is T1!) a case of matching the insulin delivery profile to my body’s needs... Had a lovely smooth line up until that point.
No idea what’s on the agenda today, husband had a nasty vertigo episode yesterday (he has them since almost dying of viral encephalitis a few years ago) while I was getting my puncture repaired, fell and faceplanted the wall. He’s now sporting a purple egg on his forehead which looks like I’ve hit him with a lump of 2x4... he was sick too, so I suspect a mild concussion.
Spent a quiet evening painting Omnipods last night, just need to varnish them. Currently sporting a metallic purple pod with a black filigree design
Morning peeps hope you all had a good night
Well a great start to the week for me for a change. Bed at a BG of 5.3, couple of checks during night 6.1 and 6.5 before dropping back to 5.9 when I got up.
How long will these figures last . Who knows the joy of type 1
Hope you all have a good day
It’s Toujeo and I take at 8.30 in the morning. So I wouldn’t have thought so.
Good morning all have a great dayView attachment 28056
Mondayitis is a well-known phenomenon !! It is only cured by having the weekend off work !!Butt monkies went to bed 2.9 woke 11.9 ~sigh~
Oh well I'll put it down to being a Monday
We really need some testing to see what the grams of carb difference there is between an unripe and overripe banana ! I think that being in normal range suggests that there are no or very little see-sawing, and that the instability of BSLs which requires lots of corrections doses may tend to keep the see-saw going to some extent.Morning everyone,
Blood sugar reasonably well behaved overnight, I corrected with an overripe banana, at one point, and it looked like it might go too high, so I did a 1u insulin correction, and that worked.
Does anyone thing there could be a possible process by which the more our blood sugars stay in normal range, that the easier it becomes to stay there?
I started wondering about this after a type 2 thread where there was a throwaway remark where someone said that their GP said to them that they have to change what they are doing because their body is used to a slightly higher blood sugar, and if they do nothing it will stay there, sort of because the body is used to it.
That's a very bad summary of what they said, and I know GPs can get things wrong, but it made me wonder if the more our blood sugars are stabilised in the normal range, the easier it becomes to keep it there.
I tried reading something about this, it was a hard google search, it focused on the role of gaba, but it was so complicated I gave up.
This is a very dodgy theory, but.............
