<![CDATA[Hello, #Fedi!]]>Hello, ! I posted earlier about not finding very good/detailed info re earlier … completely failing to remember that there are likely lots of folks here who could point me to good resources. (Thank you @canadianglen for the suggestion!)

I was 'd maybe 4 yrs ago but have had problems since I was first put on as a kid for . The most recent time I had to use those I now also had a and insulin, so when those very old yet familiar sensations of extreme highs came back, it was a bitter recognition.

Anyhow … I'm in Canada and my CGM measures in mmol/L (so numbers for me may range from 3.2 to 21 mmol/L).

I have both (basal) and (fast) injectable pens but more often than not have hours or days of uncontrolled highs for no reason I can ascertain.

Any good resources folks have to share?

Grateful for leads/suggestions. 🙂

That's an excellent point -- I definitely still have some triggers to figure out. I'm pretty good at balancing carbs with proteins most of the time and have long eaten multiple small meals vs 2-3 larger ones.

I expect that's how I managed to avoid needing insulin for so long, but it's still a lot to figure out. 😬

Thank you for letting me know I'm not alone in all this! 🙂

Sorry to have dropped out of the world for a bit … lots to deal with lately and insufficient energy to attend to all. 😐

Once I started noting my triggers alongside my symptoms, things clicked. CareClinic has been helpful for staying on top of things.

I'm still in a learning phase, so I definitely need to connect with other people who are working through similar.

For some reason I thought you'd had it longer in a different form. Good luck to both of you then!

Stress and sleep both seem to have strong effects (negative -- spiking glucose). So sometimes it feels like the liver is fighting the pancreas from across the abdomen. 😩
