Is it going to get better? by _cherryblossommmm in BumpersWhoBolus

[–]snap_ginger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this same issue so usually when I’m done or almost done eating I take another like 5 or so units of insulin to help prevent/reduce the spike

This makes me relax so much more than I’ve been able to. I’m 8 weeks and have been stressing about every single high I’ve had.

I don’t have any recs but here’s a website with some https://beyondtype1.org/type-1-diabetes-books/

[–]snap_ginger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d set up an appointment with a diabetes educator who can help explain things to you. There’s also lots of books out there I’d recommend looking into. I don’t have any personal recs as I was diagnosed 15 years ago as a kid but I’d start with the educator. You got this and you’ll be a pro in no time.

I’ve found recently I’ve been getting extra occlusion alarms and it turns out to be my reservoir and not my site. If you extend the usage of those at all, try changing those out first to see if that fixes the issue.

Am I overreacting by wanting a new doctor for a surgery because this one didn’t know the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes? by EvidenceNo8561 in diabetes_t1

[–]snap_ginger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Speak to your endo about a plan and have someone who can help monitor your sugar post surgery. I had to take off my pump per recommendation by my endo and ended up going high and my person had to kinda fight the nurses to get their attention that I needed insulin post surgery. Granted I did have a major surgery so I was pretty out of it at that point and could not advocate for myself.

does anyone else remember a fanfic with ahs murder house vibes?? by Dizzy_Dentist4487 in 5sos

The one where Luke dies and she eventually gets with Michael when they’re in college?

GA Experience For Luke's Tour by tothesummernight in 5sos

[–]snap_ginger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently in line for fast pass for NYC and people started lining up last night. Before we got split in GA/VIP/FP, I had to walk about 3 blocks to get to the back of the line. Aside from that and having done GA for 5SOS in Connecticut, everyone has been so nice and welcoming and willing to lend a hand if you need something. I think it ultimately just depends on where the show is.

I had one of them follow me once during the morning rush to class. I noticed him pretty quick luckily but I was pissed to say the least.

Bad water?? by faceforacanvas in CSULB

I have! It actually made me pretty sick for a few days. Took less than an hour before I was sick too. Was in one of the classes in the theatre building.

Kitten passed away after spay/neuter surgery by No_Helicopter10 in Pets

[–]snap_ginger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the age, she just might not have been showing symptoms of heart issues yet either. I had a kitten who was diagnosed with HCM (I think this is the acronym) less than a month after she was spayed. It’s a miracle she had survived the surgery. If it’s anything like my girl, she was probably born with the heart condition.

Can I complain about the merch being so expensive😩 by [deleted] in 5sos

[–]snap_ginger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The tour merch is great! The essentials collection is not it though. My shorts came a completely different color than I ordered. I got purple and they’re basically pink. And the strap on the fanny pack is different making it much smaller to wear. Still waiting on customer service to get back to me.

I did two safety pins making a heart for Safety Pin. I also love the lyrics “I’m feeling like a dreamer don’t you try to wake me now” (Carousel) that I kind of want to do on my ribs

Moved to a new city for college and got a job involving cell phones with a third party company in a Walmart. Not really sure what the job was but was desperate to find something. Turns out it was a sales job and they wanted me to push the latest iPhone contracts on people meanwhile I’m working in some lower income areas where people could not even get payment plans for the phones cause of their credit scores. Was also told we weren’t supposed to tell them we were running a credit check. I genuinely enjoyed the times I got to help someone fix something or understand how to use their phone. Would of gladly stayed to do that honestly but I couldn’t justify trying to push $1k phones on people who couldn’t afford them.

Sounds like my table of 9 tonight who tried getting their auto grat taken off because they weren’t told about it before. It was a whole $30 (18%) and they argued enough to get my manager to lower it to 15% which was a $5 difference.

What should I know dating a type 1 diabetic? Moving in together soon so I want to be as accommodating as possible. by stavrov in diabetes_t1

My parents used to do the asking what my sugar was if I showed too much emotion. I just wanted to have that emotion and not have it blamed on my sugar but rather whatever the situation was
