kev ive recently started on tresiba best change i ever made
and my daughter who just got married is popping round to see me with new baby granddaughter Cleo
Baby first, then married, lol, but I missed the wedding..........Flipping eck that was quick!
That is logic for you !!I was on metformin slow release a few years ago - let’s just say the polite phrase “digestive distress” didn’t quite cover it. I still keep a library in my bathroom from those days of spending so much time in there! It’s called the “Bog-leaian Library”...
Caution reigns !!I asked about Fiasp at my last appointment, but they said to only change one at a time, and we’d look into it at my next appointment, which is in September. It’s definitely on my list of things to discuss!
Reading 300 labels of peanut buyer is a good testament to your patience !!Well, I’m down to 8.9mmol. Still appalling compared to what I’ve got used to, but I’ll take single figures as a win this week! 11 shots so far today, an unheard of 17.5u NovoSluggish...
In other news, some renovation work on my local Asda in Tonypandy is yielding some good new products I’ve only seen in Cardiff branches. Sugar free sweet chilli sauce for one! Also vegan Quorn ham, which I love. I spent about 20 minutes reading the labels on the three hundred different varieties of peanut butter, and found one that’s only 4.6% carb, about half to a third of most of the others.
In Oz, DAFNE is optional. I never had it suggested by perhaps being on insulin for 45 yeras at the time they just assumed I would know. (Ha !). It was easy to pick up. Please do not sweat the small stuff !!Had what I feel is bad news today... tried to book onto the DAFNE course only to be told I can't do it because I'll have started on a pump by then. I understand it's more geared towards basal bolus but I'm not getting CGM so most of the carb counting stuff will apply. When I told them I've had no training whatsoever in carb counting they offered me a 2 hour session on it... not really the same thing. Not sure how other people feel about DAFNE but it was really pushed as something I should do and now I feel I'm going to miss out on what people said was essential
What a juggler !!i changed from lantus to tresiba and apidra to fiasp within a week of eachother i do hope that when you change it works mel
I think he had a very rare form which may not be strictly T1D but still ??Just been reading about the man who 'cued' himself of Type 1 diabetes with a rare gene and long distance running, David Darkes, diagnosed 8 years. Have you read it ?
He is now on this forum https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/dan-darkes-type-1-diabetes-reversal.153777/What a juggler !!
