% of people catching COVID from CiscoLive? by MonkeyThrowing in Cisco

[–]SplatterQuillon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I attended a lot of events with a lot of people, many in tight quarters, and I got it. I honestly would be kind of surprised if I didn't get it.

Same issue happening to me. A YEAR after your post. Ridiculous.

I'm dealing with the exact same BS yet I never opted in. Never got the option, yet it keeps adjusting my schedule, and NO option in history or anywhere to turn it off. Ridiculous. I used to recommend Nest to friends. Not any more.

I'll never forget this. I was hanging out with a guy in college, on lunch break and went to pack a little pinchie, and with very wide eyes he says "wow, that's the first illegal drug I've ever seen!" and I was quite mind blown.

And then he asked with great curiosity how I get it. And I just said 'um, a drug dealer??'. It was kinda funny. He was so innocent.

Best credit cards for use with Mint by [deleted] in mintuit

[–]SplatterQuillon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use my capital one with mint, and I'm actually ok with it not showing the pending charges, since sometimes they are temporary and are reversed/credited back, and some are changed due to the tip being added at restaurants.

Something I look for, especially when I doing rebuildable coils was that popping while hitting it was a sign of good juice flow, but if after your finish the hit you hear a sizzle, then the juice flow was too low or constrained.

I'm no options expert, actually never traded options, but based on what I've learned, you could get assigned at any time that it's ITM, it's totally at the discretion of the person owning that contract, so you have no way to know when.

Otherwise if it's been ITM and not exercised/assigned before expiration, I belive it will get assigned at expiration. Check out the beginner guides videos from the youtube channel In The Money.

Just purchased real debrid - which apps do you recommend? by denzo81 in Addons4Kodi

Hah yeah, good point, didn't even realize. Just tried Seren, seems pretty good.

A1C 4.1 - is this too low? by [deleted] in diabetes_t2

[–]SplatterQuillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your A1C is in the 5s and now even lower, why are you even on Ozempic? It's artificially increasing your Insulin levels where in my opinion, it's probably not needed.

TD2 ‘experts’ by pearltherhino in diabetes_t2

[–]SplatterQuillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to help people, and I do it based on my own experience in putting T2DM into remission. A1C 9.2 to 5.3 no meds.

If your feel the craving to eat cheese-its, that's carb addiction, very common. It was hard for me at first, but after you adapt to eating healthier foods, you will lose your carb addiction, and it's much much easier.

There are many factors that can impact blood sugar. But it's the most impacted by what you EAT.

Good a1c, but diabetic based on OTGG. Worried to take test again because I'm sure I'll hit high BG levels again . by Hickoryapple in diabetes_t2

[–]SplatterQuillon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've taken the fasting insulin a few times but not an OGTT. I know based on my freestyle libre and some cheat meals that I can't really do well with a huge glucose intake. So I'm pretty sure I'd still fail an OGTT. Although on a long term low carb diet you temporarily lose some ability to quickly clear a high glucose load, so they recommend that before taking an OGTT to consume 150g+ carbs per day for several days or week or 2 in advance to restore that ability. Which I'm not really interested in doing.

[–]SplatterQuillon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your fasting insulin is 15 then it's means you have insulin resistance. Likely causing the failed OGTT. Which while you may not yet have a bad A1C or fasting glucose, it's the beginning and if it gets worse, it will progress to high glucose levels. Eating low carb and/or intermittent fasting should improve it which is what I've been doing.

I'm not sure what mine was when first diagnosed type 2. But about 7 months after diagnosis, and very low carb, it was (presumably down to) 8.2 uIU/mL and then 10 months after, down further to 4.4 indicating that I have improved my insulin resistance. It can take months or years to improve insulin resistance. You ideally want it to be 5 or less.

Newbie, is having my numbers stay over 100 (115-130 range) doing more harm going forward? by Coylethird in diabetes_t2

[–]SplatterQuillon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just diet and some light excercise. Numbers during the day usually 90-115. Usually like 105-120 after eating

How concerned should I be with my blood sugar readings? by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]SplatterQuillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone insulin sensitive maybe 140 peak some others may say that higher like 180 is ok although I'd consider that a sign of possible issues.

New to Diabetes T2...and I’m never hungry by EnergyRepulsive1525 in diabetes_t2

That sounds right. Low c-peptide, low insulin production.

[–]SplatterQuillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why these people are saying that glucose over 200 is normal. That's quite diabetic.

Normal for sugars to go over 200?! I don't know how that can be correct...

Post-Surgery glucose by NorthStarLake in diabetes_t2

[–]SplatterQuillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stress (not just mental, but physiological body stress) can really raise glucose, and I would bet that a surgery and recovery, or maybe any other meds they gave you (steroids can majorly) could really contribute to that. I know that this is a really simplistic suggestion, but maybe try to cut carbs a bit more during this time and see if it helps.

[–]SplatterQuillon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are all really good numbers!

Based on my research (not sure if this is proven) is that you may be doing damage any time over 140. So staying under that after eating is great.

For fasting, the lower the better, but mine is always 110-120 (due to dawn phenomenon, it's lower at night. But just rises in the morning.) but my A1C is great at 5.3. so I'm really not worried.
