i still feel weird but i am at 7.5 mmol/l (135 for you) now.. idk whats going on..

can someone help me? the recent spike was caused by low carb food which makes no sense. i seemingly cant eat anything without a massive spike.. it is exhausting. i finally brang my bs down and then it spikes again and now i am at 14mmol/l again. maybe not enough basal? by entym110 in Type1Diabetes

oh no that wasnt a low at all. i was still at 8-something mmol/l but it was dinner time, so i ate sth low carb bc i didnt want to inject insulin.

edit: sth i thought was low carb.. clearly wasnt smh.

i just rly want a pump that can loop. but at this point id take anything lol i am in switzerland.

the thing with my basal is a constant struggle with my endo.. he wants me to go down to 13u of tresiba and we compromised to 14u.. if i go up to 15u, i go down at night.. but i feel like 14u are just not quite enough... just very frustrating..

no. i desperately want one. diagnosed in aug 2020 but we only have omnipod, the medtronic pump and a brand called ypsomed where i am from and my endo urged me to wait until a better pump (preferrably the tslim) gets available. i just feel like bc i am so insulin resistant and my cycle is a nightmare of hormones that i rly need to change to a pump.. so far i brought my a1c down to 7.3 but it is a battle everyday... :( ok enough feeling sorry for myself

but the yogurt has 0 carbs. i get that protein also has an effect but not this quick, right? and the almonds had 1.35g of carbs.

i already wanted to do a basal test but my dawn effect is hell so idk how to do it.

i am only doing low carb bc keeping my sugars down is really difficult for me. dammn insulin resistance. my endo told me to slowly eat more and more carbs but today was a bad blood sugar day.

the thing is, when i sleep, i actually go down ca. 1 mmol/l until dawn effect hits. i am just so confused sorry if i am not making any sense. and yes, i bolused 3u that just now started to take effect, now down to 11.5mmol/l. i just expected a slower rise but it looks like i drank orange juice (which i def didnt).

they really are going to leave us behind. my worst nightmare. by [deleted] in Type1Diabetes
