    Same with the added whiskey shits.... lol. My BS has been out of wack for a few days. Blood work in a couple weeks and I already know its going to be wack. My eye sight has changed twice in last 6 months which is clear case of diabetes fluctuation.

    That sucks. I probably ride too low for most, but shit I hate going high. I just tweaked my long acting up a bit. One thing I miss about the Tandem pump was how great it did at night with control IQ. Shit was 110 every morning and damn near all night...

    With long acting I’m anywhere from 80-180 during the night even going to bed with a 110. Wake up with good numbers though. Super hard to predict nighttime fluctuations. Stupid pancreas

    I hit my new personal best at 1130am today - 452. Sarcasm aside I didn't feel bad at all, just all of a sudden got really thirsty and couldn't get rid of dry mouth.

    I don't focus too much on my BS(meaning I know I'll fluctuate)...……..I just make sure I keep my A1C in check.

    We have to keep our A1C below 8 to stay in the DTC program for free supplies. I hang around at 7. After almost 40yrs of the beetus, I'm ok with that.

    I just had my first service done. I’ve already put 5500 miles on the Tacoma since getting it in October.

    I focus too much on it. Probably because it’s still new. Mostly fear of DKA because that sounds awful haha

    Damn haha. I was around that when I got diagnosed. A1C was 10 I believe. I went half blind after feeling shitty for a couple months and decided to go to the doc. Doc sent me to the ER, got some IV insulin and metformin haha. Obviously the metformin didn’t do shit. I was 115 pounds...but I guess nobody wants to be the doctor that prescribes insulin right off the bat and somebody dies. Leave that for the endo

    No doubt. I don't think there's a problem with close watches on it. I'm pretty well controlled.....but I've also had years dealing with mine and now how I react to most things :D
