I noticed that you haven't uploaded any new videos to your channel for more than a year. I hope everything is okay. Your content has been missed by many of your followers, including myself. Can you share any updates or plans for future videos? Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

My last emergency Glucagon kit expired in December of 2020. I have since had it refilled and keep it in my refrigerator for safety reasons. I have had some pretty severe lows in my 13 years of being a diabetic but I've never actually passed out from a low. That being said, people should ALWAYS keep Glucagon in their homes (anyone with diabetes who takes insulin, tbh). You never know when you'll need it. And if you do have Glucagon, be sure to check the expiration date on occasion because they have an average shelf life of about one year.

I wasn’t diagnosed until I was 29 and I got pregnant shortly after finding out but now that my periods have returned I’ve experienced this for the past 3-4 cycles. I honestly thought I was going crazy until I found this video. My sugars run around 200-350 for the 3-5 day prior to my period starting and then the minute my period starts my sugars tank. I started today and my fasting sugar was 220 and I’m now battling a sugar of 67 at 9pm. I also have PCOS which I thought was to blame because it causes insulin resistance so my cycles are all over the place ranging from 47-55 day cycles.

That was me when I was pregnant. I dropped to 0.9 and ended up passing out . Luckily the baby was OK, he's 18 now and also a type 1. Will be 50 years for me in late August.

What do you do if you test for ketones and it’s positive?

Thank you very much im type 1.5 LADA i got diagnosed around 39 years old so ive only been dealing with it now 3 years i was in DKA 16 times in that time till i got an insulin pump i lost about 45lbs and it has given me neuropathy and retinopathy i try explaining it to friends and family and they say oh you ate to much sugar or just take your insulin or diet and exercise will help..i got divorced around the same time I started getting sick ive struggled with it alone..times ive been sick i try hiding it from my boys and friends and family..i appreciate you very much all diabetic people..lol mom always said i was to sweet

How many days do you leave it in? I’m coming from the plastic tubing to this.

3:45 min, I really like mac & cheese. DaveH25545

3:34 min, Purge ?

Complex carbs are not bad for you, simple carbs can be. I can’t wait to make this granola bar :)

i dont trust those pumps at all. at 18 right before leaving for college my blood sugar was super high and went to the hospital... turns out the damn thing broke which lead to appendicitis...

This helped me a lot! Thanks!

I was 4 years old and I was 650 and acting strange my mom took me to the doctor I was transferred to Portland from grants pass and I got told I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes

The hormonal shifts are really intense for blood sugars- I had a hard time keeping my blood sugars up on my menstrual cycle, no matter how much I ate, it was so scary

So what do you do if you take a diabetes pill when your blood sugar is perfect like 1000mg. Do you eat something sweet. My mom told me to do this cuz she's a nurse. Do I take a diabetes pill if my blood sugar is perfect?

I just take 1000mg Syngardy with metphormine when my blood sugar is to high. Do I have type 1 or type 2 diabetes?

this video helped me out so much ❤️, thank you

May be this video has less views, let it be something. But this is very informative and useful video sister ❤

Great! ; However, why are the kids arms look so swalle?!

100% metal is better for me, i HATED the bent tubing it was ridiculous idk how anyone can use them without it getting bent

I Wish If I Could Go To A Summer Diabetes Camp Because I Have Never Been To A Summer Diabetes Camp Befor

Great video. Thanks for your help

You sound American but you said washroom lol. Thank you for your story :-)

And it seems that the TruSteel is the same as Sure-T from MedTronic - I'll confirm next week when switch to them next week.

Quit eating the carbs and plant based foods :D

I have been type 1 for 35 years and have no complications. I don't eat anything you do. My best control and feeling of being well did not come until switching first to Keto, and then Carnivore. My last ALC was under 6. I do not understand why people insist on eating vegetables (they make me feel like crap). Sure, veggies have nutrients, but they also have anti-nutrients, which is a plant's chemical warfare. Every creature on this planet has a mechanism to defend itself, including plants. Do yourself a favor and eat the way you were intended to eat, animals and fat. Take your politically correct nonsense from the equation and give it a shot.

I have been type 1 for 35 years. I must inject 5-6 units of regular as soon as my feet hit the floor even if I my glucose is 60. I only eat once a day (strict carnivore) in the late afternoon/evening. Never felt better. Eating just makes me feel like hammered dog crap and requires too much insulin. The problem with taking a lot of insulin is the weight gain it causes. If your insulin levels are too high, it is physiologically impossible to lose weight. I have a type 1 diabetic doctor who is pleased with his ALC of 7, but mine is 6 or just under and I have no complications :D

Thank you for doing this for everyone 🙏🏻💞

i still cry

Hi, I hope you and your family are well. I have a question: how did you manage your insulin resistance in the morning?I have the same problem (also before pregnancy) and my doctor can’t really help me… Thank you

Never ever be ashamed of your condition. Generally kids are curious and if you tell them all about it through a presentation every year, and how to help, they will help you and know what to do.

When you clip to the skirts in the back, you could clip it inside so the pump won't show, front or back. Great idea's 👍 Thanks for posting them.

Unquenchable thirst doesn't even scratch the surface. You can't describe just how thirsty you are to someone that hasn't experienced this. Waking up to a 100% parched dry mouth. Peeing every 15 minutes with a bursting full bladder. Massive weight loss (I lost 40 lbs in my last week before hospitalization). Blurred vision. Been T1 since 1/18/1985, just after my 17th birthday.

I can relate! I know I'm two years late but I recently went to the ER for the first time as well. It was kind of a false alarm but I wanted to play it safe as I had taken a ton of insulin and was crashing really hard. Do you keep glucagon around? I usually worry a lot less having something I can just inject myself with and pump up my blood sugar if I need to. I absolutely despise that feeling of forcing myself to eat while low so its nice to have a "ripcord" to pull just in case. Best wishes for your diabetes journey.

My brother is in coma at this moment, both me and him have type 1 diabetic, he has 87 bloodsugar (should be) 6. I just called the emergancy and now its down to 32. But this is just a minor part in this. Now they have to clense hos blood, keep watching vitals regarding his brain, heart and kidneys. Its still very critical and unsure if he will make it. He was found laying on the ground and have been there for atleast 12h since he lives alone. I will visit him soon

My daughter has been the 1. Her sugar goes high with hot weather. In summers if she swims in a cool to cold pool it helps her sugar lower staying normal

Yes, i absolutely have experienced this. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤

The . Worst. Thing. Ever. I went into DKA 5 Times 30 years ago. I'm very careful now. Almost died 30 years ago by waiting 20 hours to get help. Thank The LORD I'm still here! This was back in the days of no insulin pumps...and finger sticks were pretty new.

How did you get pregnant naturally as a diabetic. They said it's hard to get pregnant and my A1c it's currently high and I'm going back in low carb

one day when I was in I think 3rd grade someone asked me "What is that on your arm?" and I just said t was a sticker and they kept asking questions and I don't know why I didn't embrace it like it makes me stronger if anything. The main reason why I lied about it when I was younger was because I didn't know who I could trust but know I try to embrace it as much as I can. I really love your videos and you were the one that when I first got diagnosed I just couldn't stop watching your videos.

Great video!! I just started using the TruSteel and my last 2 sites gave me occlusion errors 😭😭😭 and ideas why or tips to avoid them? Thank you!!!

I’m terrified for the Bluetooth exposure nonstop my baby will be exposed to wearing these

I am way late to this party. So I'm not even going to try to offer an explanation as to what happened to your insulin dose and blood sugar. I have been T1 for almost 40 years and been on pumps about 25 years. My degree is an electrical engineering and I do statistics for a living. I tell people that having T1 is like having 20 variable but 15 equations. You may know everything about how blood sugar is impacted by your current health status, your current carb load, the location where you inject, how much exercise you're doing, all of that stuff. But no matter what there's always an unknown so you can never truly manage your blood sugar perfectly. It's not possible. Best case scenario it's a crapshoot.

Listen people would type one diabetes with that deprecation you keep feeling bad you're tired to control it the best way you can half of the time you can't really control it you know I'm saying so my point is that if your sugar is dropping like that and you try to figure out What's some food that be that you know

After 25+ years on a Medtronic pump, I started using a t:slim x2 a week ago… best decision ever! I have to say, though, I prefer Medtronic’s Quickset infusion sets and reservoirs; they’re much easier to load and insert. Since set/site change is every three days, I can deal with the Autosoft 90 versus Medtronic’s pump!😊

Why do so many people get the cause and effect backwards for thirst/urination in relation to diabetes? Your body is trying to eliminate the sugar, so it's making you pee. You get dehydrated, and that makes you thirsty.

I never thought of placing the anchor adhesive OVER the tubing letting it do its natural coil! that has been my biggest challenge for me is to have the 2nd part in a comfortable position without feeling the tube wanting to curl. Going to try this on my next infusion site. Thank you!
