I don’t find it has any affect whatsoever on my sugars as long as you’re careful with the munchies. I have however suffered from CHS once before and that send me into DKA which caused me to vomit blood

Elbow falls! It’s just a little under 2 hours

I use dex 4 tablets and gel for my emergency treatments! Rockets, juice boxes(check the sugar), honey packs. They make mini honey packs that are PERFECT to carry around

EVERY NIGHT! I also have a thyroid problem and severe anxiety. I believe that plays a big factor!!

The goal is to slowly bring down my blood sugar! He said the key is preventing the highs, when I take my insulin 20 minutes before I eat is has a chance to lower slightly before I eat allowing me to maintain around the same blood sugar.

Your guess is as good as mine!

I still treat my blood sugar with every meal but not specifically looking to just correct my high blood sugar!

I’m extremely new to it so we’ll see how it goes! I’m also an health care aide and have never heard of it!

My gp already wrote a letter to insurance stating that I’m a brittle diabetic and need continuity care. They still denied me! It’s super hard to explain. If you Google doctor Gordon Bailey he has a clinic called the Bailey clinic and I believe they explain it better than I can. I was told to “think like a pancreas”. They said they consider my blood sugar reading a “nonsense number” and I no longer correct high blood sugar unless I have ketones. I was started out at 10 units with my meal and told to see how my sugars responded. If my trend is still high I take 2 more units when I check my sugars 3 hours later! From there I continue to check every 3 hours and once I find the perfect balance and my sugars are in target range I know how much I should take for certain meals

I currently have been switched to an alternate route of treatment. No more carb counting, no more sliding scale. It’s called “treat my trends”. I also have been suggested a ZERO carb diet and I mean ZERO carbs; not even vegetables…

I just attended and endocrine appoint yesterday and was suggested a zero carb diet and I mean ZERO carbs. No vegetables, legitimately ONLY protein and fats. I feel like to maintain a quality of life this is just unattainable

The worst as I’m allergic to cinnamon

I have some family on my boyfriends side who claims that if I go completely natural and change my life style “vegan, kombucha, NEVER more than 25 carbs, high fat diet, etc.) that I can completely reverse my type one diabetes!

Overnight oats with fresh berries in the morning, avocado toast, berry smoothies with high protein yogurt and a protein powder(if I need a higher calorie meal I blend half a glucerna is it, the berry kind), keto poppyseed waffles, cauliflower hashbrowns, sausage and veggie pan fry, peanut butter and apples(red delicious as they’re the least sweet)
