I got put on Dexcom’s CBGM and the Omnipod 5. Soon I will be put on automatic insulin delivery mode and am excited/concerned about that because Dexcom often loses signal.
My biggest accomplishment: I’m hopeful! I was diagnosed in 2021 and it was hard but 1.5 years later, I realize it’s not so bad. So yeah, being hopeful is definitely my biggest accomplishment.
Celebrating 20 years T1D and 8 years with an A1c under 5.5% (with no significant lows and full Endo support!)
I had my first A1c below a 6.0, after 38 years of living with T1D
Minimize extreme swings
In 2022 I wanted to learn more about Type 1 Diabetes and Menopause. Thanks to the support of members of the community who are experiencing this life stage I was able to collect data for analysis. The analysis was then written up as a paper and I had the privilege of presenting this at the 9th International Electronic Conference on Sensors and Applications in November 2022.
Using multiple daily injections (MDI), diet and some exercise (walking to grocery store, e.g.), after 63 years of T1D, November 2022 my A1c was 6.1 (128 mg/dl). Not unusual for me. Still cannot believe I’m 79 in a few months. Still walk with no cane. No complications except a little neuropathy in both feet, but no pain. Maybe there IS something to Western Medicine? I’ll keep reading your advice so I can maintain (increase?) muscle mass percentage of my body weight AND get A1C below 6.0.
if you want something for neuropathy, try alpha lipoic acid.
my endo is NOT a vitamin guy since they aren’t regulated. he’s not fond of IF either but since it made the change in my A1C from 6.8/7.0 down to mid 5’s, he lives with it.
I am finally getting my A1c back down and have started losing weight!
I got a new pump and CGM.
Yup. I freakin stayed ALIVE! Quite pleased by that serious accomplishment!
36 years of T1D. 26 years of being an insulin pump patient.
Moved to a different state and found a new T1D care provider I like.
A1c stayed in the 6s! w00t!!
Scored my lowest A1C in December- 6.8, usually around 7.2
T1D since 1970 with no complications.
I have been losing more weight and trying to exercise more
