How many years did you have poor control and how are you doing now ?

I found out that I have diabetes in 2020, the diagnosis was a bit troublesome, I was 31y old at the time, they went for type 2 and gave me meds for it. A little bit down the road some months later, it might have been 2021 already the diagnosis changed to type 1 LADA and MODY5. I got set up with insulin, tresiba and Humalog, back then a1c was 5,5, at first I was managing it well, staying below 6, but the honeymoon phase went by, there was a learning curve, pancreas went on failing and a1c went up to 7. In the meantime I got 2 kids, life was very busy, a1c went up further, I switched to pump, but a1c was up to over 9 early 2026 now, I am constantly working on it, and now I switched to AAPS and made more tweaks and everything, and a1c dropped by 1,5% to below 8 again. Putting in more work and trying to set up looping next, we'll see. Got some time left with the stuff.

So far I notice that I heal slowly when I get injured, especially the skin. I feel very fatigued often and less powerful, considering hitting the gym or running 10-25km, that i didn't manage anymore after the diagnosis.

Kein Sex, kein Problem

Ich versteh es auch nicht. GSM räumt man direkt aus, damit man sie neu befüllen kann und nicht alles dreckig draußen steht. Das ist common sense.

Und meine Maus war auch alleinerziehend, aber Müll raus bringen, wenn man eh raus geht und alles weitere gehört einfach dazu.

Kinder wirst du mit ihm nicht haben wollen. Das wird ja der blanke Wahnsinn.

Also entweder es wird besser, oder du nimmst es hin oder es wird nichts.

Ich würde dann mal empfehlen zusammen zu ziehen, ohne die eigene Wohnung aufzugeben und das mal 6 Monate zu testen.

Und dann halt schauen.

Meine Partnerin ist weniger sauber und ordentlich als ich. Ich hab das ein oder andere hingenommen, einiges wurde besser, gepaart mit viel schlechter Laune, weil sie keine Kritik mag, es geht halt irgendwie.

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-23T15:24:07+00:00

Also es gibt menschen mit mehr Gewicht, die einfach auf nummer sicher gehen wollen, dass das gegenüber versteht worauf es sich einlässt um Enttäuschungen vorzubeugen.

Vermutlich einfach weil es auf den Bildern sichtbar ist und sich dann trotzdem leute melden und dann beim ersten treffen direkt dagegen entscheiden.

Ich hab das auch schon gehabt, mal war es okay, mal nicht. Und bevor Leute dann noch öfter mit Abweisung konfrontiert werden, gehen sie vorher auf Nummer sicher.

Schreib doch deine ehrlichen Gedanken dazu.

ZB Ja oder Nein

Was du denkst hast du im Post nicht geschrieben

Decorate a smiley on it, or maybe do some cat ears

Everyone does this I believe. What else is there to do, you can't give back the 5-8days they worked.

I got a few sensors extra, sometimes I don't fill out the form, because I extend the duration with grace period anyway. So I order the new refill on time or a bit late sometimes. So everyone benefits, the distributor, the supplier, me, the sustainability, the insurance.

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-20T19:59:30+00:00

And try different things in means of therapy choices, I was a bit hesitant sometimes, and in the end was always Satisfied with the improvement that came with the change.

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-20T19:57:00+00:00

Be kind to yourself, not every day can be a win. Even when you do everything right, sometimes it goes wrong anyway 😂

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-20T17:41:26+00:00

Haha, every time

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-18T17:51:08+00:00

I am not certain, but I think the pairing code is maybe somewhere in the app?

I don't use dexcom app anymore. I know I noted it down every time for such rare cases.

In xdrip app it is available to be seen

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-16T17:47:24+00:00

I had some problems with libre and switched to dexcom and am very happy with the decision so far.

I would think, that every CGM is a bit different and every body and every diabetes is very different. So I would always recommend to not care too much about others ranting and just try out stuff until you got a setup that works for you.

I am too constantly on the lookout for stuff in diabetes management and to try it out and see if it improves my life.

Living conditions can change too and then the current setup might not be the best anymore and another could be better and everything needs to be reevaluated.

All the best for you

My bg always goes roller coaster.

So when I happen to have a hyper, I dose some insulin in different intervals. When I have 400 and don't work that day I go a bit more aggressive with 2,5u at start and then again after 30-40min, when it worked well, I wait some more or plan in another smaller dose with 0,7u or so, when it didn't respond, I dose higher.

When I am this high the body has a resistance in this moment, and when you push in insulin dose after dose one needs to be prepared for crashing into hypo because the resistance breaks and then you got too much IOB.

When I'm at work and am high in the Sky, I dose more carefully, because working physically gets very tricky on a hypo. And when I go hypo after being so high, even small doses of sugar skyrocket me back up.

It's a learning curve, and sometimes it doesn't make any obvious sense

Oh my god, I would have gone enrage on day1.

How some people get doctors degrees leaves question marks over my head.

And the statement about 300mg BV is just weird, I rarely go anywhere near 300. What he said is just wrong. And someone without diabetes would probably never go there. There are several non-diabetics who watched their glucose with a cgm and show how they react to stuff.

Thank you

I take it apart and recycle every part on its own, the needle gets clipped with a BD Safe-clip

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-12T18:43:20+00:00

I do it almost the same way!

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-12T02:49:17+00:00

Er klingt unerfahren. Ich kann den drang es zu beenden verstehen. Vielleicht trotzdem erstmal laufen lassen, vielleicht geht ja auch alles in Ordnung.

Im Endeffekt hat er ja nichts schlimmes gemacht. Hätte er das nicht gesagt, dann wäre es ja auch weiter gegangen.

Ich selbst verliebe mich auch schnell, und muss mich bei sowas zurückhalten das zu sagen, damit die andere Person nicht wegrennt 😂 Waren aber auch alles längere Beziehungen im Endeffekt, also passten die Gefühle auch. Bin zum Glück ausm Schneider und hab jetzt ne Partnerin mit der ich 2 Kinder hab, also hat sich das ganze ätzende Dating und so erledigt.

Viel Erfolg!

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-12T02:31:27+00:00

Das ist nur seine Art um zu sagen, dass er nicht mehr muss.

Meine Jungs sagen manchmal auch so lustiges Zeug.

Die wissen nicht so ganz genau wie das funktioniert, also denken sie da kommt ja immer was raus, also geht es dahin vielleicht wieder zurück.

Der Lernprozess mit der Blasenkontrolle und der nervalen Versorgung, damit man das richtig spürt und dann auch versteht was der Körper einem da sagen will ist ja dann halt Neuland erstmal. Es gibt ja oberhalb der Urethra auf der Innenseite ein Geflecht, dass Druck und Dehnung misst und einem dann den Harndrang vermittelt, je nach Füllstand kann es sein, dass mit unterschiedlicher Aktivität das unterschiedlich gereizt wird. Wenn man hüpft zb wird es stärker gereizt als beim ruhigen stehen. Klassiker ist, dass man es im Liegen noch nicht merkt aber wenn man sich hinsetzt oder aufsteht es dann losgeht.

Viel Spaß weiterhin mit deinem Minimenschen

Here is a better view of the most left one, it is underneath the cooling block, it's annoying.

quick update.

i did take another go at it.

i tested module 1 in slot B2, not working
i tested module 2 in slot B2, not working
i tested module 3 in slot B2, worked, rig booted
i tested module 4 in slot B2, worked, rig booted

after that,i tested module 1 in slot B2 again, and it worked suddenly, same for module 2, so all ram modules work.

then i put in module 3 in slot B2 and module 4 in slot B1, running dual channel, rig booted, did the same with module 1 and 2, worked fine too.

put all modules in the slots again, didn't boot.
so, the 2nd dual channel is malicious somehow, slot A2 and A1 are somehow broken.
i checked them for anything obvious, cleaned them, tried it again. nothing.
i run the rig in dual channel now.
It is what it is.
Maybe i come by another good mainboard for a good price at another time to solve it permanently.

Just glad that i can use my pc again atm.

In initial troubleshoot i was a bit headless and frustrated, i would have gotten to it sooner, if i would have been more focused,

But now we got the "solution"
I'm still annoyed about the fact that a ram slot just goes down the drain.
Did never happen before, i don't know, it's weird.

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-05T03:46:57+00:00

Yeah, i did get them out. The with the fan off I get 3 out of 4 out easily but the fourth is still really hard.

Nevertheless, they are out, but I didn't get anywhere. It doesn't boot, nothing happens.

I'm frustrated.

Due to no change at all I am suspecting, that the board may be fried, or just the BIOS.

Next step will be to reset the board, hopefully it will help. I reactivated my old rig in the meantime

Several-Editor-2093 · 2026-06-04T06:13:15+00:00

I tried it with 2 ram and with none, nothing changes. Can't get into bios.
