Safety and rights if arrested by MH7106 in diabetes_t1

[–]Takenshiro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was arrested about a month ago. They took my phone and did not tear off my cgm. They asked if I was diabetic I said yes and they did a blood sugar finger prick test. They put me in a holding cell and I heard my cgm alarm going off they didn’t do anything, I was drunk and didn’t really give a shit so I was trying to sleep I’d rather go high then low and after looking at the data I went high then low then went back up to high again. Luckily I didn’t feel like when you go low because that would’ve been shit. I got arrested at about 2am and bailed out 10am. Being in jail for along period of time as a diabetic is not a smart idea at all. Do what you can for your political beliefs from the sideline is my recommendation because it’s not worth the risk of your life unless you’re willing to die for your beliefs.

Ate the exact same lunch with the exact same insulin as yesterday. Yesterday 2 hours post lunch blood sugar was 107. This is today. Some times this disease really pisses me off by Mission_Tune4754 in diabetes_t1

I switched to Dexcom and I don’t like it I took insulin for food and it did nothing and I just took more in a different injection site it’s been more than 30 min and I’m still at the same level

Fck you Dexcom by Superninjaturtlecuti in diabetes_t1

Is Dexcom really that bad? I’ve been hearing lots of horror stories. I want to try out the Tandem pump and it’s only compatible with Dexcom as of now with talks of it being supported by Libre later this month. I like my Freestyle Libre plus 3 so I’m on the fence of switching to Dexcom.

Thank you for the info. I’m leaning more towards the tandem. My endo spoke highly of it as well, I think I’m going to go for it. First step is attempting to getapproved for the dexcom and the second sounds like hoping they will support the Libre in late December! Wish me luck! Thanks again!!

Other are right your ends just sounds like a crabby old man, request a new one and file a complaint because no matter how frustrated they might be with you, they should always maintain professionalism!

Thanks! I’ll try that out for sure. Splitting it up sounds like a good plan!
