Blessed Be and Merry Meet!
The Lord and Lady can only do so much, but the wisdom is with you about reasonable portion sizes and learning more about how YOUR body treats food, insulin/meds and exercise. Not EZ sometimes, but it is do-able. I know ...
Trying to round up all you guys and gals from PA.
Jessica, All of the comments on here are great and very helpful but remember that the point is to do the best you can to live the highest quality of life. When I started reading this board I tried to cut my carbs down to 30-45 per meal and felt hu...
I totally agree with Sarah, at pre-meal with 84, for sure those 2 extra units took you low to 38. My endo is not my baby sitter, who else if is not me know best how my body works and reacts. Especially how it reacts with different types of food an...

Totally agree with Sarah. My doc writes scripts and sends me for tests. Someone on here keeps saying "don't make any changes unless your doctor tells you to". That's not how I was trained to manage my D. I am responsible for my own health and I ca...
Hey Jessica- i know a LOT of us have been where you are right now in terms of feeling at the end of your rope. Sounds like TU is what you need right now!

If you added 2 units to your bolus, that's exactly why you went low.
You say "but i'm not doing anything worg i doing what they tell me to do" - but it's not up to them to tell you how to live your life. I see my doctor's job primarily as orderin...

the goddess save me bless it be )o(
I don’t know what more I can do but I’m tired of going in to the hospital all the time (like 50 times sine Nov.) b/c my blood sugar goes too high and I become ready sick b/c of it. now I feel like there may still be hope thanks to the lord and lady. I’m now back to be a proud wiccan. I’m getting in a few months and my blood sugar still goes up and down like crazy but I’m getting the pump soon. The goddess is helping me showing I’m a good person and I can live with this diabetes.

- I actually just started using it about a week ago and I love it. It really gives back a sense of freedom I lost when I was diagnosed. I felt great before I started on my pump, but I feel healthier than ever now

- Jessica- I am guessing that the language barrier is a big deal between you and your doctors. I think that this person on youtube is deaf and has diabetes http://www.youtube.com/user/lgrimeau
What things make you go to the hospital? Do you get high ketones or throw up or what?
