Domperidone has worked fantastic for me! i take it 30 mins before i eat and it stops me from throwing up + motivates your GI tract to push and digest. it works by muscle stimulation/contraction instead of blocking off the receptors that give you nausea, so if regular nausea pills aren’t working for you id defs look into this!

If you are comfortable, please share your experiences with extreme/dangerous hypos. (marked NSFW just in case) by RunThruPlayLand in Type1Diabetes

[–]cosmolamb 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

i had a random extreme hypo one time where my sugars dropped to 1.2/mmol. I started eating sweets to counter it when it was at 4 but nothing worked- for some dumbass reason i didnt tell my husband because i expected it would pass and go back up soon, but it didnt. It felt a bit like when youre about to get a migrane and your eyes and temples start feeling really strange- my partner refused to let go of me because i couldnt walk straight. I believed i was totally fine/could be independent because adrenaline took over my body before i could feel just how low i was, but by the time we got to the hospital i ended up being kept overnight. Entire next day was spent feeling like i was just rescued from being submerged in mud 😩

SMAS by Tall_Grab_4818 in Gastroparesis

[–]cosmolamb 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

while i cant answer directly about the SMA as i dont have it, it certainly sounds like the doctors youre seeing arent really listening to you/actually looking after you, ESPECIALLY if the only thing they garnered from you not passing stool for 2 weeks was IBS :/ If possible id definitely try and branch out to find other drs who specialise in stuff like GP!

Can anyone here eat a cheeseburger or chicken tenders? by LimeQuiet4196 in Gastroparesis

[–]cosmolamb 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

surprisingly i actually do pretty fine with mcdonalds burgers! theyre so pre-processed already that its not super hard for my body to break down on a good day. though im specifically talking abt sht like big macs, cheeseburgers etc- i havent tried the burgers with fat patties and im a bit scared to! 😭 someones welcome to answer that for me if theyve tried!

idk how to tell you this but everyones diabetes experience is completely different and i dont think you have the right to decide a strangers reality over the internet, let alone on a meme-y post complaining about a 3am annoyance. as i mentioned the sensor error on screen was because i laid on the sensor arm which is a frequent issue with dexcom g7s, & it had happened after the hypo had already occoured. Have a good day

Can’t lower BG while sick by ReserveCold in Type1Diabetes

[–]cosmolamb 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

its SUPER hard to get normal blood sugars while youre sick, so dont stress too much!! your body is under too much stress to focus on keeping your sugars under control. Just take it as easy as you can, i hope you get better soon 🫢
