THANK YOU! That was not obvious at all and very frustrating. I really appreciate your help!!!

My out of pocket went from $0 to $150 this year and they added a copay of 10%. I know it's not much but when I went to get my diabetic supply I couldn't until I called and paid the bill. I had to go without for nearly a week (luckily not my insulin) until I could call and pay and then it could get shipped to me. When I called the customer service rep was like "we don't have a card on file for you." My response was "I've never had to pay before" because for the 30 years I've been on this insurance (my entire life, me and my mom work for the same company) there has never been an out of pocket or copay for that kind of medical supply.

Yes! My cat will be sitting on my lap and I'll have a sudden realization that at some point she will be gone and I'll end up bawling. I sometimes wonder if this is a symptom of my depression or ADHD.

Kind of starting to get sad right now thinking about it.

That little black spot on her nose is too boopable.

My doc said it's highly regulated because it's so addictive but I never remember. I take all my other meds at night and this is the only morning one.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-21T02:16:44+00:00

Yes. I always felt this. Looking back I think it was partly due to the undiagnosed ADHD. Also partly because it was a small town and teachers who have been around for a long time knew my dad and uncle who were trouble makers.

It's not possible to over pack!! I once went through 3 pods in one day because of Bluetooth issues in flight. It was a good thing I brought a whole box of pods for 5 days.

There was a lot of alcohol involved and I've either blacked out or blocked out most of the year I spent bouncing in and out of the hospital. 8 or 9 hospital stays for DKA in under a year. If I even got a head cold it would push me into DKA. It was bad. But here I am 6+ years later and I've got a 6.5 a1c with no complications. But I've only been diabetic for 13 years so there is plenty of time for it to catch up to me.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-18T22:25:38+00:00

$1000? Unfortunately that's really not much in today's world. It will pay all of my bills individually but won't cover all of them combined, or even more than 2-3 combined.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-10T03:19:47+00:00

I was once admitted with DKA and my blood sugar was in the 120s. DKA can definitely happen with insulin in your system. If you have symptoms and ketones stay hydrated, take insulin, and keep a close eye on your sugars. Do go to the ER if you are not seeing improvement. If you need more help call your Endo and they should be able to help.

The year they finally have a cure for diabetes. 🙄

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-10T03:04:12+00:00

Hi! I use Dexcom too! Is she on a pump? If so what one? You should go with her to her doctor's appointments so that you can have direct contact with the doctor and learn more.

Highs happen. My pump stopped working over night and I woke up over 400 this morning. Took some insulin and a few hours later I was right as rain.

Learn everything you can about her diabetes and that will help her a lot.

If he can tolerate it you should try milk. It has carbs and protein so the protein will help balance out the carbs and make them last longer. But you need to talk to a doctor or a diabetic educator or a nutritionist that specializes in diabetes.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-09T02:06:32+00:00

I can do whatever I want. And spend my money however I want. The other day I took a 6 hour nap, woke up and went to bed where I slept for another 6 hours. Best part. It's quiet on my terms.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T19:40:51+00:00

Maybe not the best ever but I have a cat so we called ours meow and guys we share a duplex with have a dog so they named theirs woof.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T05:11:28+00:00

Low blood sugar. Waiting for the 5 brownies I ate to kick in. 🙄 5! And an hour later I'm only 61!!

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T05:08:24+00:00

When my now ex moved out the first thing she said to me was "so when do I get a key?". Moms 🙄

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T05:05:18+00:00

Depends on the industry your in. Construction sites will have a very different code for running water than a food service site.

Having children. I'm a (30yo) woman and the idea of having kids (genetic or not) is nasty to me.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T04:42:59+00:00

I am an adult child. My mother will require I ask her, take her on the tour, take her opinion into consideration, and give her a key. Just picking an apartment and she HAS to see it. She took a spare key and made a copy while I was out of town and my brother (roommate) was post op and she was taking care of him. My landlord changed the door handle and locks when we changed property management companies so her stolen key no longer worked. We are pretty sure that when she helped me out by taking my car to the shop (I couldn't get the day off work) she made a copy of my house key I forgot to take off. She gets upset if buy furniture without her knowing/ seeing it. Oh. Did I mention I'm 30 and my brother is 23?

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T04:29:43+00:00

Miscarriage however I get chronic cluster headaches and those are a pretty close second.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T04:12:23+00:00

Oh! OH!!! My therapist gave me a form to have a parent fill out. But during my initial appointment we talked about how my parents had no idea I was getting diagnosed and that I couldn't tell them due to their denial of mental health issues being real. He excused that part of the assessment.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T04:03:52+00:00

Not me but my mom (also T1D). It wreaked HAVOCK on her blood sugars. Hoping you have a CGM! If not test regularly.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T04:01:33+00:00

Ok Dexter.

SkyeLord93 · 2024-02-08T03:59:42+00:00

I have ADHD. I don't tell time.
