I am the first one that I think has to live with diabetes, and not for diabetes.
But we cannot compare each other.We are not going the same life.And you have to be positive, but sometimes the circumstances do not allow you, no matter how much you want to see the good side ...
The type of diabetes that each one has very determines our life we ​​want or not.To that are added our personal problems ...

I try to have an absolutely "normal" life.But let's not fool ourselves, at least in my case, you can't.You can "adapt."

On Sundays I don't know why doing exactly the same, similar intakes, etc ... etc ... in the middle of the afternoon I always upload my glucose and I have to rectify (although the basal goes up that day).Sometimes I punctuate and it is as if I had not.Result: if on Sunday I have been (as this happened to me) in a birthday, I can socialize, but I can't eat anything and I just look at me ... it hurts ... what do you want me to tell you.And I can't eat and click more because I give birth to high figures and generate some terrible peaks.And it is also that the rapid seems that it doesn't even serve me.

The problem comes now, which makes me get rid of totally.And they want to leave everything and hale ...
There are times that I have a great streak and my sugar goes phenomenal and suddenly ... everything falls apart.BECAUSE!Does anyone happen to anyone?
I have to start down or go up the basal, rectify a lot of times quickly ... until he painted it.And of course I spend days ... and that influences my glycemia.
The people around me tell me why ... that something has to be, that he goes to the emergency room (if I go, the fixed toilets are split).
Many people I know wears the same pattern of the basal years ...
It makes me feel rare and different and the worst ... I know that lack of control harms me in my eyes, I move away from my goal that is to get pregnant and make me think that I don't know how to take care of myself and depress me a lot ...
Some have some figures that I by much calculation, food without HC and eg I will not get in life.

I think: day by day.
But it is very difficult when you have a diabetes that flutua so much.

I had since 2018 with few insulin modifications, with stable guidelines, using very few units in my ratios.With sensor paid by me, not now.

Menopause since 2020,

And now, I am as described from 03.23.

Sometimes, I have corrected 2 or times 3 after eating, I panicked so many insulin units and that everything returned to normal, suddenly.

I have spoken it with the endocrine and indeed or case.That raises and that's it, and of course I have ruled out specific infections, but ... something will have to appear and see what happens later ....
I have tripled the ratio in the food and there are still days that I have to correct.

The basal however, I have not modified it much.

Lately I find it a lotTake impulse.

We have to continue ... and there is no other.

I have also uploaded insulin needs, more or less since the end of last summer.And that I do a lot of exercise, which is supposed to consume glucose.I do not obsess with it, if I need more I wear more and period.I prefer to correct than remain in 190 for hours.

The disease evolves and the insulin you need is what you have to apply.There are many factors that influence glucose metabolism: hydrates intake, protein and fat intake, physical activity, hormonal levels, stress, infections, sleep quality, ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure, and there will be more that I have not discoveredstill.

At the beginning of summer I was on the beach and had one or two daily hypoglycemia.I told the nurse of the Health Center (who is also a diabetes specialist) and said: Sure!When you go to the beach you have to lower the basal for the low pressures at sea level.

Well look, I had no idea, this is crazy.I left the basal to 11 and now I need between 15 and 16.

There are peaceful weeks in which the levels remain very good and others of madness with inexplicable peaks.The important thing is to keep calm, apply our knowledge, test more or less units and return to the lane.

Encouragement compis, we can with this;)

I have also had to increase the slow and rapid throughout the last year.From my debut, I have been with 10 from Toujeo and now I put myself 15. I think I still had some pancreatic insulin reserve, and that is over.I also see that sometimes I need a little more quickly.But well, this is so, there is no other than adapting and adjusting.I don't like spending much time in 190 either, I prefer to correct.

I was almost the day they told me that I was diabetic, I told myself that diabetes was not going to control my life.And since then he accompanies me, but he has not prevented me from doing anything, nor eating what I want or drinking what I want (eye, knowledge of how this partner works).
From pilot Ulms, jump in parachute, train hard and win border competitions, martial arts, act and take me theater awards, fill auditoriums, some TV appearances, have children, give me bike routes, hiking, continue helping more patientsIn my therapy cabinet, climbing mountains, with them (and without them) ...... And what I have left and I do not give up to have someday (title of aquatic lifeguard, plane pilot, more championships won, train aMy grandchildren when I have them, as I have done with my children and make those routes that towards but now with them, resume the scenarios and those crazy ideas of shows that I had to present them in public ........ Well noI still have things to live, to allow diabetes to stop me.
Everything is a matter of attitude.It sounds obvious, and perhaps more coming from someone, than me, usually gives coaching and motivation sessions, but it really is so.The way you talk to your mind determines what you will achieve.You can put the focus on 2 sites.If you put the mental focus on the negative, everything you will see is negative but if you put it in the positive, everything you will have is positive.What does the focus change?They usually say that if you don't like it, but it's not correct.If you don't like something, change.That is the right thing.If you keep doing the same as always you will get the usual results.If you want something to change, the simplest thing is that you change, since you cannot control the external circumstances change what you can control.Your way of relating to them.Try doing something different.You will discover a lot of yourself.

All of that is very good, it is not about diabetes but if you have limitations for it, in long evolution with controls that were not good years ago because the appropriate media or medicines did not exist for it and you have any complication that can limit youIt is not so easy, if suddenly in an ophthalmological review, they would tell you that you have lost vision because of the DB, would you continue thinking that you will be able to do everything here for a few years and nothing happens?It is complicated, it depends on many factors.

Yes, these are diabetes, the forum is diabtes.And yes, they have told me that the view is failing me by the DB (my great grandmother stayed blind because of the diabetes and my older sister without glasses, which she is because of the diabetes from shortly before she turned 4,He doesn't see three in donkey; good precedents, huh?).I have gone through a neuropathy with much likely, so they told me, by diabetes.They had to give me electro shocks to be able to reactivate my nervous system (I do not recommend it to my worst enemy).I was about to die after the 13th day, operated in life or death (it had nothing to do with diabetes), by a specialist who had to bring by helicopter.The operation left me sequels and since that day my stomach doesn't work as it should.In my family there are diabetics, without skipping in generations, for more than 100 years.I have been guinea pig to try things and devices before they are in the market.Apparently we have in my family, something in DNA that makes us likely to have a rather aggressive type 1 diabetes ........ But here I continue, smiling at life.ANDI already told you many of the things I have considered doing in my life, and that I have already done.And vice versa, everything makes me reaffirm my thinking.It is true, that certain thoughts may pass me for a few minutes, but I do not let them catch me (I recognize that I also know many techniques so that it does not happen, since I have a therapies and coaching business and emotional management).Limitations are only in mind.Take care how you speak in that internal language that you have with you myself.If you tell yourself that you can, you are, you are able, in the end you will end up feeling it (I understand that it sounds easy, and it is, but at first as everything, it costs) if you tell yourself the opposite .............

Well, I smelled, but not everyone has that strength, I do not have it at least, and I think it is normal not to have it what matters the most is health, it does not go as you would like.But I congratulate you if you are able to abstract in this way and live the present without looking beyond.

It is normal, not having it or not knowing how to get it afloat.It costs me.It is not a day, but you can learn.There are therapies, coach, psychologists ..... and not to abstract, it is not to get caught day and day also by thoughts that end up limiting you.It is being aware of the disease, but also of some and that I can choose how to feel at all times.How to face things.The decision is mine.Not of diabetes.It sounds as it sounds, but it is so.I don't know, after years going through experiences, courses, learning, I understand.I guess I also saw it difficult at the beginning.But you know that everyone can.

What does aggressive diabetes mean?
Language is important, type 1 diabetes is for all the same, disappearance of beta cells insulin generators.

Another thing is that it alters people based on other pathologies, mood, functional, etc.

It is a term of my first endocrine.To me, several 0.2 or 0.5 The dose makes me a world.I mean, at the pattern, upload for example, 0.2 can take me in less than half an hour to the low, or lower it or, 3 makes me more than 300 in 40 minutes.Thus, giving me a guideline that adjusts me is a real madness for the endos.But of course, the normal guideline is not ideal, because we have no 2 days equal.Nor can I inject it depends that sites, because in them, gender resistance, according to the tests they did to me.It is as if in those places I was injected with water (and that if I get the needle to cross them, because sometimes I bend them; even one was left inside; or do it without bleeding and what I inject myself does not help thego with wound blood).
