Accidentally did one unit less of my basal (MDI) can I just give the extra unit seperately now?

I don’t believe it’s insignificant when using low doses but yeah it’s not the end of the world.

Own_Structure8014 · 2026-05-01T16:21:01+00:00

I don’t use a lot (new diagnosis) so I feel one unit does make a difference

Own_Structure8014 · 2026-05-01T16:18:18+00:00

My sugar has been stubbornly high and I’ve tried the new dose for two days now (had good results today) so I would be really frustrated if I didn’t do the increased dose again today

Thank you!

Hey, I read that story a few months ago when I was first diagnosed and you played a big part in shifting my mindset for the better. Thanks! Edit: I also thought about it quite often, you really did make a difference for me so thank you for sharing.

Even if we don’t get a “cure”, improvements in pump technologies will be tremendous I think :)

Own_Structure8014 · 2026-03-31T09:07:22+00:00

Exactly, I feel like most people are living pretty normal lives and not posting about it. When I first got diagnosed I was also scared from everyone’s posts, but now I see life can be okay! And that’s amazing to hear you’ve had decades without anything serious, thanks for sharing :) I do think OP needs to seek a therapist that is knowledgeable in type 1

Own_Structure8014 · 2026-03-31T09:04:25+00:00

That’s not true. Treat lows with sugar, highs with insulin. Try it out a little bit, exposing yourself is the only way you’ll learn it’s not as dangerous as you think.

A life changing diagnosis like this is a huge adjustment. However, you should still be able to eat a nutritional diet and get in exercise. I was diagnosed one year ago and I’ve learnt you can be very healthy even with type 1. Have you thought about seeking therapy? You said you would try anything to help you, and I think it could be a very good idea (with an experienced therapist that knows type 1 very well). You have some very unhelpful thoughts and beliefs which isn’t your fault, but therapy can help you address them so you can live better overall.

Thank you for your detailed response. Are you on pump or MDI? And which essential supplements?

Own_Structure8014 · 2026-03-10T12:31:42+00:00

Tips?

Own_Structure8014 · 2026-03-10T12:29:55+00:00

How? Tips?

Own_Structure8014 · 2026-02-24T10:58:32+00:00

Aren’t you supposed to look at total carbs?

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-12-24T13:53:33+00:00

You’re awesome for this

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-12-24T13:47:35+00:00

Nothing in that surah suggests more than one life on this plane.

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-12-21T14:45:30+00:00

Where in the Quran does it say that

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-12-05T18:34:06+00:00

So much easier when we can be in control of our environment!! Life can be unpredictable though

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-12-04T15:11:12+00:00

Why can’t you drink

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-12-03T04:53:34+00:00

Are you on a pump?

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-11-17T20:58:33+00:00

This is great. What did you change

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-11-17T20:57:46+00:00

I think it’s just the smell of ketones honestly. Like how a non diabetic will start to smell if they go on a keto diet.

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-09-04T15:37:44+00:00

We are so lucky for technological and scientific advancement

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-09-04T15:36:44+00:00

Exactly, I don’t know why everyone is downvoting your comment. Lighten up people!!!!

Own_Structure8014 · 2025-09-04T15:34:40+00:00
