"It is my understanding that due to biological changes, in some people with Type 2 the body stops producing insulin, effectively changes the diabetes from Type 2 to Type 1. It is also my understanding that with Type 1, for the most part, the issue…"

Jen commented on Fenderstratocaster's blog post 'sugar ot of control with stress'
"I think for people diagnosed as adults it's not at all uncommon to have a honeymoon that lasts years. I met a lady a few years ago who had been diagnosed as Type 1 in her 50s a year and a half previous, and only had to take bolus insulin if she…"

FHS commented on Fenderstratocaster's blog post 'sugar ot of control with stress'
"Could have been an extended honeymoon period for a good part of that, as Jen says. Hard to say, but that would be my guess. There's just not enough information given to make any assumptions about how your control was before and after the big…"

Jen commented on Fenderstratocaster's blog post 'sugar ot of control with stress'
"If you are a Type 1 as your profile says, then you will always need insulin, as Type 1s usually don't produce any significant insulin of their own unless they are in the "honeymoon" phase. As to your question about stress, yes stress…"

"Yes, I am often stressed and my bgs do rise. Try breathing exercises, tai chi, yoga, listen to soothing music, anything to control the stress and lower your bg numbers. Good luck."

Posted on January 7, 2012 at 2:48pm 9 Comments

Hey there,

Just wondering if anyone else finds that their BG levels go through the roof when stressed out.
ive recently started on insulin after after a really bad time in my life and was wondering if anyone else had the same problem. now im lovin my life again and chilled again, is this a temp body reaction and will i be able to go back to tabs?
Id love to here comments from anyone whos been through the same.

Thanks and happy new year :-)

One of my buddies (http://posterchildren.com/) has a 1978-ish Squier Strat, apparently when Fender shut down in the USA and shipped gear to Japan, some of the Squier models were basically like the USA Strats? It's a nice guitar but, then again, I don't recall meeting too many guitars I didn't like?

I saw your name in that thread. I don't have a Strat but a Tele and an LP and a Jazz Bass. I just got rid of a couple of ridiculous tube amps I couldn't conceive a need for any more and replaced the w/ a Vox VT120 that is a lot more practical and weighs like 30 lbs less should I lug it anywhere. I like your tattoo too. I have one on each arm. I'm not sure about the back as it would be frustrating not to be able to see it. That's a cool design though.
