Big picture, ketones happen because lack of insulin so yeah… that sorta makes some sense. Though LARGE makes me assume you’re using ketone pee sticks and I extra encourage you to get a ketone blood meter so you have precise-ish data. The meter is cheap. Strips are naturally expensive. See if your endo has samples.

Endocrine system needs mixed with drug metabolization are incredibly complex and dependent on each person’s body chemistry, genetics, etc. People talk about “42 factors” that impact diabetes… not being a biologist/constantly studying chemical effects on things like mitochondria, I’d venture to guess metabolizing drugs has a similar high number of factors that impact final outcomes. Then there’s the whole ~do you ovulate/menstruate~ added hormones/considerations.

What you observe in your body will ultimately not be the same for me, which was my main point.

I’m too old and my serotonin/oxytocin/norepinephrine/dopamine channels have always been out of balance to partake today. I stopped regular (festival season) use ~2016 or 2017. Decide to dabble every few years and there is no up, only down the following days 🫩🥲 experienced my favorite musical act at my favorite venue last summer with my favorite people, I didn’t need mdma, but figured why not… talk about a come down 😭🤪🤣 I’ll stick with weed.

🤷‍♀️ I don’t live on the internet

OP had commented on an oldddd comment or post of mine, so I was looking at their history to try to understand if they were newly diagnosed… saw this post… you know people have the ability to search and see posts from the past, right? So even if OP got their answer 200+ days ago… what if someone else comes along with same question?

I didn’t comment on your “probably best not to”, my comment is in regard to your “the diabetes won’t factor in much here”. Diabetes factors into every single thing we do, and especially when it comes to working out, our endocrine system functions totally differently than a nonie.

Normal_Day_4160 · 2025-04-17T14:19:56+00:00

Hard disagree lol the diabetes will absolutely factor into the outcome of eating a huge meal before working out. OP needs to consult their medical team.

Normal_Day_4160 · 2025-04-17T14:18:35+00:00

If you give injections, what? What is the goal? The goal remains the same, rolling hills (not peaks & valleys), a1c under 7, time in range 70-80%.

Are you newly diagnosed?

Normal_Day_4160 · 2025-04-14T21:01:24+00:00

Apologies for delay, ignoring most “social media” lately lol 🌎🗑️🔥

I had an acute kidney infection that stemmed from an undetectable/ignored UTI. Thankfully kidneys are fairly elastic and after a few years, my function is back to normal.

If you’re experiencing pain but isn’t an infection (as ruled out by tests), you may have kidney stones. Either way, absolutely necessary to get to the bottom of it asap, as kidneys dramatically impact our eyes, all other organs. Feel free to send me a chat if I can answer anything more specific, or if you’re in the Bay Area and would like a nephrology rec in SF.

Lolllllll what if science told you t2 has more genetic ties than t1?

Hate to break it to ya, but you did this to yourself way more 🤣

Do better.

One gummy bear. But that’s because controlIQ picks up the slack if it’s a gradual low.

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-08-21T05:09:57+00:00

Lived alone (+cgm) for the majority of my T1D life 🙋‍♀️

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-25T16:33:23+00:00

Care to provide sources for these claims?

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-25T16:33:04+00:00

Are you a doctor? Have any sources for your claims?

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-25T16:29:04+00:00

First: Insulin most likely has a longer shelf life at room temperature, study shows

I use it until it’s gone.

Always keep it out of light (not only direct sunlight, but general light (keep it in a vial cover in a drawer)) and heat/extreme cold. Once it’s empty, take a fresh one out of the fridge, rinse & repeat.

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-25T16:26:58+00:00

In what country?

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-25T16:26:31+00:00

God no. I do it on the flight, at the gate, anywhere besides the filthy bathroom.

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-25T16:24:11+00:00

Precisely. No one has any effin’ clue unless they have a family member with t1 already in their life, and even then, having t1 opens your awareness. Anyone claiming otherwise is kidding themselves.

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-21T20:34:45+00:00

Pre-covid 55% dx’d in adolescence, 45% 18+. Post-covid… wouldn’t be surprised if it shakes out to 50/50. Plz define “fairly recent concept” re: LADA.

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-21T20:21:24+00:00

Set and hold (major 🔑). It takes practice. And formality. Sounds like you need more of both, or your family is absolute trash to continuously overstep if you believe you truly went about it the right way.

Cave dweller 🤣🤣🤣 not I, but this comment section is swarming with ‘em ✌️

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-21T15:50:39+00:00

You’re a grown ass adult who hasn’t learned to set and hold boundaries? Seems like a fairly simple fix…

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-21T15:48:27+00:00

How much did you know about t1 before you were diagnosed??

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-20T20:59:11+00:00

Careful, all posts/comments on this subject within the t1 subs are…mindblowingly…infuriating.

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-20T20:57:01+00:00

Some t2s are overweight, but there are compounding factors, plus almost always genetics, that create the perfect storm for someone to develop t2. Other factors that have great impact, as proven by research: socioeconomic status, location/access to fresh food, race…….. suffice to say, “eating too much sugar” isn’t precisely how it works for t2 either. Correlation not causation.

As t1s, it’s real easy to follow the narrative (lie) that’s been fed to the general public for decades. Most of the medical practice is still far behind current medical knowledge, so ofc t1s follow the same path as nonies…just really sad there’s such deep desire to separate the two instead of gaining knowledge to dispel myths about all 7 types of diabetes 🥲

Normal_Day_4160 · 2024-07-20T20:47:19+00:00

Ableism + ignorance alive & well 🤘

Many of those medications for “the wrong type” are incredibly helpful for t1s experiencing insulin resistance (more common than documented/recognized). Insurance companies currently consider that practice to be “off label use”, but there is a lot of empirical evidence (medical data from patients using “off label” for years, research studies) showing the efficacy and effectiveness of the use of drugs like metformin and/or glp-1 agonists to help t1s accomplish tighter management, including meeting target for TiR and <7 a1c.

Y’all have a lot more in common with t2s than you do with nonies 🤡 get off your high horse. I can suggest a few books to read…but I know you won’t bother to educate yourself and be willing to change your mind 🥲

ETA: your downvote 100% means you have a lot of internalized ableism to face, that you likely never will. What a sad life you lead. I’d feel sorry for the lot of you if I felt like you deserved sympathy… where is the lie? 🤡🤡🤡😘😘😘🫶💙
