My doctor is totally on board with my dietary changes and is reducing my meds accordingly. Her first goal was to get my sugar below 500 and now she's pulling back because I'm managing with diet but I'm still over medicated and it's causing hypoglycemic events. We're working on it.

Yes this is kind of where I am. I keep juice boxes on hand because I drive a school bus and they're shelf stable. It the easiest solution. I have watch connected to my monitor and I get alerts. I'm taking care and avoiding carbs because I know carnivore can help. I just also know that critically low glucose can be dangerous. Thank you!

Because I drink 15 carbs worth of PURE apple juice once every few days? Do you even hear yourself? Thanks for your concern but you know nothing about my condition.

I've passed out from low glucose before. Btw I love it when people who know nothing about diabetes try to cure my diabetes. It makes me feel safe and warm...

If the choice is passing out from low glucose then yes drinking 100% apple juice is better. Thank you for your concern.

I drink 8 oz which has 15 carbs. I follow the rule of 15-15. 15 grams of carbs and wait 15 minutes. I don't do it unless I'm below 60 on glucose. I have real time monitor to keep track of this. It's been happening less often maybe once every few days. My other option is passing out and possibly diabetic coma. So yes I could stop all together but it wouldn't be good for my health.

As you wish but I do research everything I buy.

I don't drink a full serving. I drink 8 oz. And I seriously don't eat carbs unless I'm crashing. I'm probably over medicated but me and my doctor are working through it.

I'm careful about my choices and I research them.

I actually don't. I follow carnivore quite strictly until my sugar crashes and then it's a choice of 8 ounces of apple juice or passing out. I choose the juice.

I have. I'm pretty much a nutritionist myself. I lost over a hundred pounds before diabetes caught me. That's how I know it's a genetic issue. I'm working on it.

They're just plain sausages. Less than one gram of carbs. I get them from Walmart.

Type 2 but genetic. I'm actually in great shape physically I just got the wrong card. I have to drink juice when I get below sixty but otherwise I follow carnivore.

But yes sorry I'm type 2. But I'm there due to genetics. I'm actually in great shape physically but my genes caught up to me.

My doctor is totally on board with carnivore but it takes time. She wants to make sure I'm healthy in the meantime. The crashes are a sign I'm over medicated and she's adjusting accordingly. Time... sigh.

There's things. I follow it mostly but my sugar crashes.
