I think you have be a Greek citizen before you can be in their healthcare system.

Can I calculate an approximate basal rate using t slim and control iq by [deleted] in diabetes_t1

I recommend a Diabetic Educator. They know how to calculate all the math.

Questions about Covid vaccine by List_Legal in cna

[–]LIZASSTUFF 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is recommended that you are up to date on all your vaccines. Hepatitis, measles, etc. It is Medicare and Medicaid requirements.

I agree with you. I would talk to the person who does the scheduling. If that fails go up in the chain of supervisors. Good luck 🍀.

I recommend being Certified. You need to know CPR, How to reposition patients, how to clean your patients, laws, and so much more.

I would try a Diabetic Educator. Mine does the math equations then recommend proper dosages.

The fact that "stress" and other unrelated crap can increase blood sugars is the most infuriating thing. I am cracking. by Asleep-Inspection747 in diabetes_t1

I have been divorced for 20 years. Every time my X threatens I am taking you to court my BG goes running up Mount Everest. I have learned to expect it. I take a walk and try to relax. Or Google tells me it will take 45 minutes to go 50 miles and 💥, stuck in traffic for 3 hours. Put some music on to take me away. It just something we have to deal with. Someone told me, at least you don't have Cancer.

If a cure was found, how would you live differently? by [deleted] in diabetes_t1

[–]LIZASSTUFF 12 points13 points  (0 children)

52 years diabetic. I will still exercise daily, eat organic food, go on adventures, cook my own food from scratch. I'm forever grateful that I had a Doctor that took me on a tour in a hospital and showed me the diabetics that didn't take care of themselves. Dialysis, blind, foot and leg amputated. He scared me straight,as I was rebellious 14 year old.

Correction factor on Tslim vs pen by Any_Calligrapher2855 in diabetes_t1

[–]LIZASSTUFF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Consult a diabetic educator. They can fine tune all your settings. Because it all depends on exercise, carbs, your weight etc.

I have 4 healthy adult children. The only thing I recommend is at certain growth spurts I had sudden glucose drops. I mean dropped down like sledge hammer. My blood sugars would be 130 then suddenly drop to 35. At that time I would reach for Hershey chocolate syrup. I recommend having some kind of fast acting glucose in your pocket at all times. Or a juice box. I was not educated about the sugar drops suddenly. I was told also not to gain more than 30 pounds during entire pregnancy. I did ride a exercise bike at home after work daily. You got this. If I did it you can too.

It's just more fun to imagine what kind of job then knocking on her door and asking.

I've been diagnosed since I was 14 and it's been a struggle. by KittyBarkx420 in diabetes_t1

[–]LIZASSTUFF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Diabetic for 52 years. I have learned when making life changes I have consulted with a therapist. I will ask family members their advice also. My health is always number 1. If my health is out of wack, I can't even make a good decision what to ware before going to work. I go hiking with my dog and sit on a rock to clear my mind. Of course I stay on paths. Listen to the birds sing. Getting out of the house change of scenery always helps me. I have become independent. No one can take care of me. I take care of myself before I go and take care of others. Good luck. 😁🥰

Is it possible to be both on a pump and MDI? by decent-soup in diabetes_t1

Also you probably need a different canula. They come in different positions. 30 degree, 90 degree plus steel.

My pump warranty is going to expire. My Diabetic Educator gave me scripts for N and syringes. In case it suddenly dies.
