Diabetes is a lot to manage sometimes. So many external things going on that cause ups and downs along with some frustrations. I read today a beautiful article on how a woman lost 120 pounds and gained control of her diabetes. It is not an article on carb counting or exercise logs. It is an...

I came across this article on Facebook. It's worth reading it through, although it's a bit long; it opened my eyes to the role played by Pharmacy Benefit Managers in the increased cost of insulin. I thought it worth sharing: ...

Hello. I'm 34 years old and was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 4 months ago today. My BG level was 997 when I was diagnosed. I went through a period where I ignored my diabetes and now I have blurry vision, tingling in my fingers and toes and when my BG is in a normal range I feel hypoglycemic....

Hey all! I know it’s been a while, but I just got busy living life. Most of us tend to be sort of reflective at the end of the year. Not the kind of reflective where you glow in the headlights – you know what I mean. Just wanted to share what I think is a milestone in my journey. For those...

T2 for about 10 years. My a1c last fall was 5.9, so I'm not doing too badly overall. But every afternoon my husband and I go to the coffee shop and I frequently go for the oversized cookie (700-800 calories and a day's worth of carbs.). Whether or not I have the cookie, by evening I am so tired...

Hi there. I just recently found out I'm pregnant and I'm terrified. It wasn't planned so my A1c is not where I would have wanted it at all. I'm so freaked out. I've got an appointment with the endocrinologist tomorrow and I've already made several changes to my insulin regime but I'm still seeing...

I saw my dr. today to get multiple test results including the final results for my adrenal tumor. Good news on the adrenal tumor - it's non functioning at this time so no surgery, just monitoring. What was a total shock was my A1C - 4.9! I've been following LCHF for the last 2 months but...

Hello! My son Preston is 4 1/2 years old and was diagnosed at age 2 with type 1 diabetes. He is on an insulin pump, and we (finally) just got the dexcom system. I have a really scary situation that is happening more frequently and our endocrinologist has no answers. The latest scenario is that...
