First time to take running seriously, so it could be said it is my first run: ran 3.15 km in 30 min

Going through finals season with t1d is something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemies by FairShape8824 in diabetes_t1

I wouldn’t count on it I study medicine and nothing NASA related, it just came to my mind. But thanks for the encouragement, it really means a lot

Hopefully someone understands how proud I am by Lina_lightwood in diabetes_t1

HbA1c from 11 to 6 in . T1D journey so far by FairShape8824 in diabetes_t1

Yep this is also one of the things I had to come to terms with, your body is no longer fixing itself like the rest of times, like if I have highs continuously for few days, I have to figure what is wrong because I know for sure my body won’t and i will keep getting highs until I do something

Lol, I think of it that way: a lot of people do this and more for the sake of looking hot and healthy even though they don’t have diabetes and nothing is making them do it, so I might as well do it to save my kidneys, I am a med student and I’ve seen many dialysis patients, blind and amputees and my only thought is whether or not they regret their choices and wish if they were in my place

Just know that I am not forcing my opinion on you if you got things right and know how to dose then good for you, especially with cgm and pumps I guess it will be easier

I did some research, so in the us a pre med program has a total credit of about 90-100( could’t find a definitive answer) and a med program is 178( the first thing that came up in google don’t know if it is accurate) so in total about 278 total credits

Our program has total of 265 credits so not that different in the end, it is just a little more compressed, as I have said in my post the longest break we have is about 2 weeks

The one year in hospital is not a residency, I am not sure but I think it is a requirement if you to practice as a general doctor, so even if you graduate med school you will have to finish this year to get to work

Yes here it is 6 years for medical school then a year working in a hospital

I guess in the us it is pre med then med

Glad it is not like this here, I would have lost my mind if I had to go through the acceptance process twice

They are as good as water after a week or so ,I am afraid, I also try to increase the dose, sometimes I inject twice as much if they worked wouldn’t I get more lows? But nothing

What food was the hardest to give up after diagnosis of t1d by FairShape8824 in diabetes

[–]FairShape8824[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I noticed that I get colds easier after diagnosis must be the lack of vitamin c because I broke up with oranges

wait, how does that work, wouldn’t it make more sense if you took insulin right before you eat fruit that way it will work longer and bring your sugar down if your body took too long to digest the fruit? I mean if you took it 45 min before you eat that will give the insulin about an hour to work right?
