      When you experience an illness that makes your blood glucose levels more difficult to manage (whether because you are unable to eat, the stress of being sick, or any other reason), what resources do you refer to for help managing your blood glucose levels while sick? Please select all that apply to you.
      Fortunately that hasn't been an issue for quite some time. If I need help beyond what I've learned from 67 years of previous experience, I'd contact my endo or CDE.

      The resources I use in managing my glucose levels once sick is my own personal experience after living with t1d for 46 years

      Just did what makes sense to me- eating less carbs, watching blood glucose more often and taking corrections as needed. Also some level of activity if possible.

      Been type 1 since the early 80's learned self management as therapies changed. Unless hospitalized(which I never am anymore) I decide how much insulin to put in my body based on my on going experience with the 1000's of reasons I may need more or less of it. I do love my pump, insulin and CGM so I guess I have to tell the doctor what I do once a year. .. I just keep throwing info and facts he isn't up on till he gets a glazed over look on his face and writes my scripts. I find the most inconvenient part of diabetes is all the people that want to help but don't know much about everyday life with the disease. And NO I do not want to join a discussion group!

      Many times I have needed to adjust insulin intake amount in order to cope with illness, but only rarely needed outside help. In the early 1970’s I made some mistakes managing influenza. My BG went very high (no meter available for testing at home), and I ended up in the hospital then.

      Except for those brand new at this, we all know the drill. We know that we need to be flexible, make adjustments, and pay attention.

      only time that I have been sick was when I got COVID during Jan '22. my sugars were going crazy high and I couldn't understand why but when I tested positive for COVID, in retrospect it made sense.

      I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in my mid 20s and had a radioactive iodine treatment. Now hypothyroidism. I was diagnosed with T1D in my early 30s.

      I had Hyperthyroidism and I have a malignant nodule on my thyroid. I treated my hyperthyroidism without radiotherapy and it has gone into remission. My Endo verifyed it was malignant and checks the nodule every 6 months with a sonogram. And I agree with Sondra. This is much harder to use. We lost the feature to comment on other posts. My passwors wassuposed to port, but it took me 3 tries to reset it. This was because the password rules weren’t prominently displayed on the password reset page. Im sure others agree. The number of posts has dropped significantly, only 9 other comments at the time of this post. This is a case of newer not being better.

      I do not suffer from hyperthyroidism. I also dislike the limiting features of this new question and answer page. Not only can we not reply directly to other people’s comments, we also cannot correct our own if we need to.

      Yes, low thyroid dx in 2004. T1D dx in 1955. I wish to add my thoughts on the new combined website. The opening page is visually very difficult to follow. I’m hit with too many sections calling for my attention without a navigation guide. Simplify. Rethink User Experience (UX). The ability to personalize my answers is the reason I’ve continued to respond to the questions. The new format makes that more difficult. Placement for my response should be directly after answering the question. The new format didn’t transfer my profile photo or password. Asking me to login before answering a question should not be necessary , since you sent me the email. It’s definitely time for a response from TID Exchange. It’s definitely time for a response from TID Exchange.

      I was dx with low thyroid when I was about 26 and then dx with T1D when I was 62 I also do not like having to put in my password every time so this is the 1st time I’ve answered a question since the change. Also there is too much stuff before answering the question

      I have had hypothyroid for 31 years and type 1 for 5. I take Synthroid and have never had problems. I couldn’t agree more with comments about new format being user unfriendly. I tried to like them but was unable to on my phone. Why can’t a redesigned website keep the interactive features of the previous one?
