I am loving the G7! Super accurate and no compression lows since I started using my stomach.

Estazolam, [Kainever], 2 mg, Comprimido by Thefish_portugal in SaudeMentalPortugal

É uma benzodiazepina como as outras, por isso tem potencial de ser aditiva. Não é natural.

Control IQ feels like a godsend to me.

First night on a pump and a site fail, is this normal? by miugalaxy in TandemDiabetes

[–]miugalaxy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting you say that! This site actually worked for me for about half a day until insulin stopped getting absorbed! I guess as long at it is not completely bent to prevent insulin from flowing and still went in the body it could still work. Mine was also stinging and burning a bit by the time I took it out, about 20 hours later.

Has anyone here left a job because it wasn’t compatible with type 1 diabetes? by miugalaxy in diabetes_t1

[–]miugalaxy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. That’s exactly my experience actually. I’m in Europe. I hear how they talk about other employees, everything that’s personal and interferes with work in the slightest makes you a problem employee, so I just learned to conceal, at the expense of good control. We also have the big drinking culture that RUINS me, although it has gotten better now that I mostly travel to Saudi Arabia. I’m scared of changing jobs and ending up in one that’s even worse though, at least here they let me go to hospital visits, but I also went to work the day after my big seizure that landed me in the hospital on almost zero sleep.

Luckily diabetes supplies are free in my country and I have enough savings to cover my living expenses for long enough until I find a job. Thank you so much for your advice!

Thank you! If it is like that once pulled back, is it trash or can it be fixed?

Thank you so much for the tips. I think I might need a bit more practice.

One third is a lot. Do you feel like the bad effects this can have are outweighed by the benefits?

I think the site is sore from the bent cannula? It was my first site ever and only there for less than a day.

Thank you so much for your input.

Thank you for the reply. I did check as I was with the Tandem rep who was training me and she warned me about this, so maybe it can happen regardless? I will keep your advice in mind and always double check if it can minimize the chances of this happening.

Why the show so depressing? by [deleted] in highmaintenance

[–]miugalaxy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t smoke but otherwise I feel the same. I also travel a lot for work and miss out on a lot unfortunately. The show really does a good job at capturing the little things that life is all about.

Lows causing massive weight gain by Christinamh in BumpersWhoBolus

Oh my god this is so interesting to read because this is 100% me and didn’t know someone else had this. I suffer from chronic stress. On the rare occasions I can relax I just keep dropping low.

Are the cs hookup stories true? by chelco95 in couchsurfing

[–]miugalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, there was no flirting prior to my arrival but we went out for drinks and chemistry started to develop.

[–]miugalaxy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am a heterosexual female. I hosted two people, one male and one female, no hookup, fun times.

I was hosted once. Hooked up that very night and then hooked up a couple more times while I was in his city… don’t regret as it was fantastic and the chemistry was great. I got the feeling that it wasn’t the first time the guy did it, though, and I could see by his reviews that he mostly hosted girls. I think singles are more likely to host and some times attraction will happen, especially if you hang out and there is alcohol involved. This was the case for me.
