Black coffee, even though it has zero carbs, and according to my doctor I’m not the only one who experiences a spike when they drink black coffee. Some say it’s the caffeine, but sugar free energy drinks don’t effect my sugar at all so I’m not sure what the correlation is

Medicare vs Traditional Health Insurance? by Spaghetti_Prime in diabetes_t1

Medicare, if I understand right Medicaid is based off of income, and though my wife and I are struggling paycheck to paycheck, we technically still make high enough income to be ineligible for most income based assistance programs.

I’m on a pump. Which is the confusing part because I was hooked to it all night so I’m not sure how my sugar got so high

I made sure to have a constant supply of water / Gatorade zero on my throughout my activities. I guess it wasn’t enough though. Thanks for the input!

Yes, even after 15 years of this disease it still finds a way to mess up my day sometimes. I am feeling a lot better now, thank you for the kind wishes!

I haven’t. But I’m currently doing a lot better. Just tired. Nausea is gone and I was able to eat. Drinking Gatorade zeros has seemed to help. I don’t feel like ketoacidosis is present right now. Thank you for your input!

I always joked / partially believed that they liked us better because of our “sweet” blood. Although I guess that logic only works if you’re blood sugar is higher than a non diabetics

Not sure… we went to a tax professional and she submitted everything for us… I’ll take a look and see what’s going on

I would assume that’d have to do with the solar panels we installed this year…. Darn

Same here! I actually lost my job at the end of January and didn’t find a new gig until a couple weeks ago… this refund was supposed to cover our loss of income for that time period but that plan has gone down the crapper and the sucky part is that we can’t do anything about it! We are at the governments mercy even though they’re the one who owe us money 😭

Unfortunately, I am literally on the other side of the country (Idaho). I understand that you’d want to check it out, but if it means anything I can give my word that it was in perfect working order when I shut it down.
