I've been Type 2 for nearly ten years, with good control using diet and exercise. Eventually, though, things got out of hand, I pulled out an HbA1c of 11.2, and Metformin was prescribed by my GP.…Continue

Loquacity replied to wynot's discussion 'Accu-Chek Compact data transfer' in the group Accu-Chek UsersLoquacity replied to wynot's discussion 'Accu-Chek Compact data transfer' in the group Accu-Chek Users"What software are you using? Is there such a thing as free and/or open source software that will actually work with the meters? I had a look around when I first got my Accu-chek Integra, and gave it all up as hopelessly proprietary binary blobs.…"
Loquacity replied to SilverLining's discussion 'Considering administering insulin myself' in the group Monogenic Diabetes (aka MODY)"Thanks April. The website isn't very well organised, I found myself looping around in circles a lot, trying to get information, but the content isn't too bad. I've had an email back from them, and will probably have a phone call…"
Loquacity replied to SilverLining's discussion 'Considering administering insulin myself' in the group Monogenic Diabetes (aka MODY)"I agree, start getting the doctors to work *for* you, not against you. And please come back here and let us know how you go. We're all cheering for you :)"
Loquacity replied to SilverLining's discussion 'Considering administering insulin myself' in the group Monogenic Diabetes (aka MODY)"Thanks April, it is fascinating how much variation there is even amongst people with the same category of diabetes!
After looking at some of your other posts, I've applied to the Kovler center too, so hopefully something interesting comes of…"
Loquacity replied to SilverLining's discussion 'Considering administering insulin myself' in the group Monogenic Diabetes (aka MODY)"I personally find that moving more has greater overall and long-term positive effects on my BG than anything else, including medication.
MODY has all sorts of 'hallmarks', but the main ones seem to be related more to heredity and insulin…"
Loquacity replied to SilverLining's discussion 'Considering administering insulin myself' in the group Monogenic Diabetes (aka MODY)"OK, I have to side with your endo here. Your BG *should* go up when you eat something, that's normal. Considering that it then drops back down within 2-3 hours, I think you're doing fine. What are your fasting numbers like?
I think that…"
Loquacity replied to SilverLining's discussion 'Considering administering insulin myself' in the group Monogenic Diabetes (aka MODY)"I would be very wary of doing this without medical supervision. Is there some reason why you can't get help from your endo?"
Loquacity replied to Loquacity's discussion 'For My Birthday, I Got A New Diagnosis'"Sounds like one of the in-between ones to me, Karebear! bsc has started a MODY group that you might want to check out ... http://www.tudiabetes.org/group/monogenic-diabetes-aka-mody
Looking back over this old thread makes me realise that I never…"
karebear1966 replied to Loquacity's discussion 'For My Birthday, I Got A New Diagnosis'"I was diagnosed as a type 2 two yrs ago. And gestational 20 yrs ago, But because my body reacted very strangely to the standard methods of treatment I was pretty much left to my own devices to figure out what would work for me.The more research I…"
Loquacity replied to Knightshade's discussion 'Weight Maintenance with MODY....' in the group Monogenic Diabetes (aka MODY)"Sounds like you know your stuff, so I'm not going to lecture you. I think you have it pretty well sorted. You might be on to something with the snacks, though, nuts are high cal and if you're using sugar substitutes in your baking, it…"

Loquacity replied to Knightshade's discussion 'Weight Maintenance with MODY....' in the group Monogenic Diabetes (aka MODY)"You're doing keto too? Respect, dude!
Sounds to me like you're doing everything right exercise-wise, although that's still a lot of cardio. Maybe drop it to 20-30 mins nightly instead or something?
What macro limits are you using? Are…"
