Hi @Japes I feel a lot better knowing i'm not the only one with these kinds of concerns. I'm glad i'm not alone!
I hope i can start losing weight as well when my body is finally stabilized and healthy again.

@Scott-C I check my blood sugar levels regularly, several times a day so i can manage my highs and lows as much as possible. Libre is definitely in the future for me. Where i live, everyone with type 1 diabetes gets one for free. My doctors told me i would be likely getting libre very soon, which is a huge relief. I hate stabbing my finger tips over and over again.

Hello @Daibell I usually eat about 100 to 150 carbs a day. I'm constantly hungry which is also a huge pain in the butt. Sorry if i'm unclear in what i write sometimes. English is not my main language. Though i'm quite fluent, some terms associated with diabetes are not yet so familiar. What i mean is that for example: My blood sugar is 10 and i eat about 30 carbs, i inject NovoRapid 3 units + fixing my blood sugar which would be about 2 units. (1 unit drops 2, i was told) So in that case i would inject 5 units and hopefully after that my blood sugar would be about under 7. Do tell me if there is something that came across as unclear.
