"not horrible considering you had no idea what you sugars were like. keep up the great work and the numbers will get better and you'll feel better"
punkrockprincess2003 replied to punkrockprincess2003's discussion 'Need help!'"I'm working on it.....i work out 1-2 times a day and i eat really healthy....my doctor is screwing with my meds though he put me on humalog 75/25 so i don't know how this is going to work for me.

Brian (bsc) replied to punkrockprincess2003's discussion 'Need help!'"That is great, it must be somewhat of a relief. I know you were probably terrified.

MissKitka said… - Princess,
I love punk rock too, listen all day on Live365. I have been type one for 51 years last summer. I have no complications yet and take 2 shots a day of 22 hour N with some R mixed in for fun. The last time I saw a doctor for diabetes was 1969 so have been on my own ever since. I have pretty well seen it all by now so ask anything you want.
