  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.
  Only "illness" that makes it really difficult to control my blood sugar is getting steroid injections into my cervical spine or fingers. I leave my basal rate on my pump at 250% and need much higher bolus doses and many "extra" doses if my blood sugar remains really high. I tell the MD's that it turns my insulin into tap water and try to avoid it, experience with having gotten these injections over the past few years has helped, but having blood sugars of 400-500 despite much higher basal and bolus dosing is so frustrating!

  When I had surgery last year and couldn't exercise for a few months, my time-in-range was very good. I was shocked but I shouldn't have been as exercise is one of the things that make my diabetes harder to keep under control. During recovery, I didn't have the ups-n-downs in blood sugar that I usually have when I exercise.

When did you last have your A1c measured?

Approximately how many areas of your body do you use for pump sites and/or insulin injections?

Got mine checked just this past week, in March, but won’t get the results until next week at my appointment.

Every three months. Like clockwork. 6.0

Had it done in January. My A1c is always in the same range I honestly don’t even see the need to have it done. I am more focused on increasing my TIR and decreasing the number of lows I have.

Last done at the end of January. Next one – end of May. It’s checked every 3-4 months.

I will be getting A1c this month-April 2022. We had a Telemedicine session in January due to my travel. I share my Dexcom 90 day info which is just as good and always very close to A1c.
