"Sure, and every time someone brings them in the office too. Only 23-26 carbs depending on where they are from. Krispy Kreme not that is a glazed donut. Oops maybe I shouldn't have put that on this site...never mind everyone can enjoy it…"

Ava, join the Dr. Bernstein group on Tu Diabetes and read his book. I've been following Dr. B's advice for 1.5yrs and really, I cannot believe how much I depend on it. I buy few books and tend to just use the library loan system, but Dr. B's book, Diabetes Solutions, is something I will be re-reading and referring to for years. I am a recent Type 1, Latent Autoimmune of the Adult. Type 1s can have other autoimmune diseases that affect platelets. It's rare, but get them checked out. I have Hashimoto's, autoimmune thyroid disease, too.

Hi Ava,
I sometimes see the same issue you describe with my finger pricks. I recommend you start a discussion topic about it on the Forum:
http://www.tudiabetes.org/forum/topic/new?target=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tudiabetes.org%2Fforum

I am sure we're not the only two... :)
