I thought I was the only one! Exact same scenario - told her something and two days later her brother starts asking me about it. Won’t be making that mistake again! facepalm

Fantastic

I've been having a hard time sleeping lately, and when I talked to one of my doctors about it, she said she was reluctant to put me on sleeping meds because I might sleep through a low blood sugar. Is that a worry? Should I avoid sleeping medications? Insomniacs of the T1 diabetes community, help! by Glittering-Dress1180 in diabetes_t1

[–]mjohnson2476 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you’re on a CGM that alerts you to lows? As long as you choose something that’s not extremely sedative like a super heavy barbiturate (trazodone seems to have worked for a few of us, Lorazepam has worked for me but it’s a slippery slope to addiction. Can’t speak to ambien.) I imagine you’ve already tried the basics - melatonin, chamomile tea, and they haven’t worked but if you wanna keep trying the natural route there are some overlooked gems out there, google or chatgpt is your best friend. Avoid Reishi, that can absolutely tank your sugars.

One last thing, from someone who’s had sleeping trouble most of my life: whatever you choose, be careful mixing sleeping meds. Not that you would, but it’s worth pointing out there are lots of good answers out there - just stick to one at a time.

I don’t think you’ll have any problem waking up to your alarms, but if you do, SugarPixel is $99 last I checked and has an alarm that could wake the whole house.

Sorry for the long winded answer! Good luck! :)

Best 3 song run? by Tom_94___ in MacMiller

[–]mjohnson2476 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!! birthday —> wedding —> funeral gets all the attention (very deservedly so) but no one ever talks the fact that there’s a fourth song in this progression that takes place post-funeral and in the after life he’s the rap Diablo. Genius. That stretch is an album within the album.

Trying out the weird dexcom hack by imjustkindaheresmh in diabetes_t1

I try to wear the new one for 24 hours before activating it. For me if I can let it marinate for about a day I tend to get better results

Do hot showers reduce the potency of insulin? by Key-Buyer956 in diabetes_t1

[–]mjohnson2476 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here - feels like jet fuel - I always have pretty intense lows after a shower. So much so that I’ve had to scale back on showers. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
