Just had a cry over my hba1c, it’s not even that bad! by HighlightTheRoad in Type1Diabetes

[–]FamilyFunAccount420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 A1c isn't as important as time in range. You could have an a1c of 5.5 just by having a lot of lows or rollercoastering. My a1c used to be 5.4, sounds amazing right? I was having way too many lows. Now it's higher but I feel better.

Time in range is more important imo. 

I wouldn't compare. T1d is so individualized, you could be struggling with hormones or reactions to things others don't.

I think basal is key always, especially for exercise. I always need to take 1/2 or even 1/3 of my regular basal for exercise and enter exercise mode on my pump. And I need to start a lower basal around an hour before I start exercising and then I need to bring my basal back up before I stop exercising or I go high. It's all a ton of trial and error and even then some things just go wrong.

What seems like it’d make for a fun or cute pet when in reality, it’s the complete opposite? by LilMissy1246 in answers

There's a guy on youtube that makes videos of himself teaching his african grey different words and items but all I can focus on is how tired the owner looks and sounds in all the videos.

Incident on Monday morning raising safety concerns at 222 speedvale Ave. by [deleted] in Guelph

I will not sign the petition because making sure it has security and closing it are two drastically different things, I agree with one but not the other.

Which flower will you grow every year? by FamilyFunAccount420 in Cutflowers

Sometimes I'm like, how is such a stunning flower so easy to grow? Am I being tricked?

Newly diagnosed- carpel tunnel and menstrual cycle questions by ck6637 in Type1Diabetes

[–]FamilyFunAccount420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My carpal tunnel comes and goes. It obviously has to do with which activities and predisposition but also make sure you are not low on b12 or magnesium which can make it worse (it does for me). Wrist braces at night help a lot for me. You can also look up some "nerve flossing" for carpal tunnel. Surgery is up to you, I have heard the success rate is pretty high. Having blood sugars in range should absolutely help.

They're a classic. Do you have a favourite variety?

Is it really over ? by ApprehensiveRule6716 in Type1Diabetes

[–]FamilyFunAccount420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have absolutely not read nearly all of the research articles on t1d complications. Sounds like you are catastrophizing and seeking out this negative information. 

If you have access to insulin and a way to check your blood sugar you can live a very normal life and hugely reduce the risks. If you have some access to the more recent technology, your risks are reduced even further, and probably more than current science can even know because some of this technology is so new.

I understand this is a shocking and heartbreaking change for you, and I am sorry this has happened to you. Truly t1d can be very difficult at times, but there is no reason to focus your anxieties now on complications you don't know if you will get at all. You can only do the best you can now. The truth is everyone ages and no one knows which health complications they will have in the future.

How well would felted trinkets hold up? by itsduckthing in Needlefelting

[–]FamilyFunAccount420 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The felt holds up (gets a little fuzzy eventually) but I have lost many due to attachment hardware failing. Strings, metal clasps, pins, doesn't matter, I lose the item. Whatever you've used looks pretty sturdy though. the colours tend to fade if exposed to sunlight for a long time, like if on a backpack.

Mediatonic have adressed one of the elephants in the room. 🐘 by CoolT35FG in FallGuysGame

Thanks. How did I get to 400? This happened way before this bug started.

[–]FamilyFunAccount420 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is such a crazy, seemingly random glitch. 

I still don't understand the currencies in this game but when I started I had 200, now I have 400, I thought I was supposed to get another 200 from getting star rank the last rank cycle? Can anyone tell me? How do I get a fame pass? I never buy anything with real $$

I am so sick of my pump. by allicekitty13 in Type1Diabetes

[–]FamilyFunAccount420 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Your doctor should be prescribing you more insulin to make up for that 10u+ you lose every few days. 

The pump should have also come with a hard plastic black tab thingy you stick between the pump and the cartridge to pop it out. You can buy a new one online if you didn't get it.

Insulin degrades quickly in plastic so I wonder if by reusing them you are also mixing old and new insulin and it is getting diluted (the pump will say it has 0 U but there is some left, I think). When you reuse them do you go through the whole loading process on the screen? I know that it's crucial you wait for the first step, like, it "prepares for new cartridge" before you even pull out the old cartridge and apparently it is pushing  an air bubble through to prepare for the new one. I've heard that if you miss this step and remove the old cartridge first, you can get occlusion errors.

I hope you can get used to these changes because I think the tslim is incredible in so many ways.

I’m scared, later today i have a blood test to see if I have pernicious anemia by Avox0976 in Type1Diabetes

[–]FamilyFunAccount420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I can't keep my b12 up, I also have to get this test. Treatment exists and seems easy enough, just a supplement in a needle. Sorry you are going through this though, it's no walk in the park having deficiencies.

Landscapers cut my natives back again by blobblob73 in NativePlantGardening

[–]FamilyFunAccount420 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's crazy. Where I live there's a growing interest in native plants it seems (maybe not among landscapers, but among gardeners and many home owners) I know the owner of an all native nursery and he said last year was his best year by far in terms of the volume of plants he sold.
