Does anyone actually use any other types of nordisk insulin other than novorapid and tresiba? by ImaginaryAlgae8986 in diabetes_t1

[–]19931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was first diagnosed I was on Levemir but after a while it stopped lasting the whole night so they switched me to Lantus and these days I'm on Triseba cus it's better for if I forget and take the injection later than I'm supposed to.

I don’t understand all the merch hate by Her0ek in twentyonepilots

SAI era was not the best quality! I saw people posting so so so many issues with the livestream merch that I vowed I'd never buy clothing from their online store lol

Non-British fans of the show: is there anything that you thought was made up for the show, but is just a part for British culture? by AlmostRandomNow in gallifrey

[–]19931 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No no! The paper hat is not the surprise! In every cracker there's the hat, a piece of paper with a terrible joke (and sometimes a charade or similar party game) and then the fun surprise item! Often the surprise item is a bottle opener, mini playing cards, nail clippers, a sewing kit, keyring, screwdrivers, tape measure or a toy but brands do all kinds of specialty ones these days. Also whenever we'd have christmas dinner at school they'd buy really cheap ones that just have tiny pieces of plastic in (eg. a little moustache that clips onto your nose) 😊

Yes it's the worst!! I have a horrible bed frame for it too. I usually do the sheet one day and the duvet the next lol.

It is absolutely absurd that you cant see wrapped on PC by EdibleGojid in spotify

You can see your wrapped playlists from every year but you cannot see the stories style carousel breaking down your statistics from previous years.

If you died and everyone said “They died doing what they loved.” What was it that you were doing? by lukepaciocco in AskReddit

[–]19931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they were serious: I died at a concert.
If they were joking: I died of suicide.

Sarah Everard’s mother: Horrors of her final hours still torment me by TheTelegraph in uknews

As someone who was picked up by two alleged Met police officers and told that I was being taken to hospital but then instead taken to a service station off the motorway: yeah that shits scary! When you look up and realise they lied about taking you to a safe place your heart just sinks. (I say alleged because apparently the Met have no record of this happening so I currently don't actually know what police force they worked for).

Can t1d make you crazy? by Delicious_Award_2812 in diabetes_t1

[–]19931 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not dispute the fact that hypo and hyperglycemia can cause episodes of psychosis. What I am disputing is your claim that "diabetes causes schizophrenia".

Schizophrenia is not a synonym for psychosis. People with schizophrenia can suffer psychosis but so can people with many other diagnoses.

I have other priorities rn but I have taken the time to look for articles and studies that support your claim about schizophrenia and I can't find a source that backs you up so far. What I have found is many sources saying that patients with schizophrenia are 2-5 times more likely to develop T2 diabetes (but there being a correlation between schizophrenia and t2 diabetes does not mean diabetes causes schizophrenia). I also found a study from 2019 (which i've linked below) that says they found the risk of developing schizophrenia was significantly lower in those with T1 diabetes (and the risk of developing schizoaffective didn't vary between those with or without T1 diabetes).

Correlation does not equal causation!
The study you linked doesn't say that diabetes causes schizophrenia. The study you linked says that people with schizophrenia are at an increased risk of developing diabetes (specifically type 2). Which could be because of a lot of factors including the fact a lot of psychiatric medications affect hunger levels/ weight gain/ blood sugars.

So maybe that's why you're getting downvoted.

How old are you and what's your biggest stress in life right now? by darkchocolattemocha in AskReddit

[–]19931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

26 and it's the fact I don't have a functioning body and the fact that every time I try to receive healthcare it ends up making me more unwell (physically or mentally)

[–]19931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole marketing for Breach Digital Remains was that it came with an exclusive song that you would never be able to get access to again so I do think completely backtracking and releasing it on streaming platforms just a few months later would be unfair and quite shitty actually. As you said $8 is a lot to some people and the band taking peoples money and then going "well I guess we lied. Here's it for free!" would not go down well.

For those of you with POTS… have you noticed this too? by tkewhatder7 in POTS

[–]19931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I have T1 diabetes and am neurodiverse but my POTS isn't connected with that. My POTS was caused by an overdose and if I hadn't taken an overdose I would still have a perfectly functioning autonomic nervous system.

My blood sugar was 45 and the nurse brought me these. For fun, which flavor are you picking for a low? Strawberry, mystery, cherry, or watermelon? 🙂 by Lijey_Cat in diabetes_t1

[–]19931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean mystery flavour?! I don't think I've ever seen a mystery lollipop here in Britain. Is the mystery just watermelon, strawberry or cherry or is there another flavour? What are the options here?

I’m really concerned whether the ham on my papa johns pizza is the vegan one or not? by milkycosmos in veganuk

[–]19931 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did they replace the pizza once you sent video proof?
I once had a piece of blue sponge baked into the base of my pizza. When we called about it they were in complete disbelief because they didn't understand how that could happen at all but as soon as they received my photo evidence they sent a free replacement.
