I really am diabetic

The choice on sw is I am not diabetic and I am pre-diabtic.
I am diabetic type 1. I was diabetic since I was a kid. My blood glucose right now is 3.1 which is not hunkydory! I am swigging lucozade as I write.

You need to inject insulin with tnat but also need to limit sugary drinks.

But juice is what the doctor recommends. And soda wrecks teeth worse.

@Spoiledbrat Even old people need to listen to people who actually been there! I know you are doing the best for your little boy. I apologize for my behaviour. I really am sorry. I've been a right cow!

I think it depends on your country and healthcare system - my Dr recommended lucozade and I carry mini Mars bars. @Spoiledbrat

@SW-User Same here mostly. But I am a trainee lifeguard. It really messes me up when I take my pump off!

@Blodyn ahh I don’t have a pump, I just inject twice a day

@SW-User I used to. Except it was four times a day. My friend in swimming club wears her pump on her arm and doesn't even need to take it off! I have to test my bg and work out my carbs and it sends the amount of insulin by blu tooth. Sometimes I feel I am only half human and the rest is machine!
Sophie it's so lovely to chat with you! You take care girl! x

I just woke up and I am 3.3. I am hypo so much these days. I think because of covid we don't have clinic just a telephone chat with the doctor. And it's just Yes I'm fine. I'm still alive! Ok. Speak to you again in six months!
