I'm 13 and i have type 1 for about 5 years now ... It's not that hard IMO you just have to get used to it and you can live a completely normal life , about the stupid questions people sometimes ask , it happens to me a lot , like " You can't eat sugar ? " etc. , people don't know what the disease is and so they ask stupid things like that . Anyways wanted to ask you what's your HBa1C , how many units of inslunin did you take in the vid and which insulin do you have?

[biffyclyro2757]

I use Novorapid and do either 16-18 units depending upon by BM level when I wake up. My HBa1C is currently at 7.2. People often ask stupid questions but I like to think of it as being interested and trying to better your understanding of the condition.

Cheers

It seems that you do not disinfect the injection site. Is that the case and if so why not?

Thanks,

Sorry Scott for the late reply, very late!

I don't disinfect the site, never have really, just a bad habbit I guess but don't really feel the need to.

Cheers

Is that your thigh?

I'm type 1, too. :)

[biffyclyro2757]

Yeah, easy to do me injection in my thigh, been diabetic about 15 year and have developed lumps on my belly so try to avoid doing injections there, mostly upper arm and legs, cheers

i do to, but i have never injected into my butt, I know i can, but never tried it!

[timoje17]

Sweet , i use the insulin pump with Humalog R or Apidra , for my breakfast it's usually 8 units , my HBa1C was 5,8 like 4 weeks ago. Just wanted to ask you this , how old are you? And about the peoples interest about the disease what you wrote makes complete sense although i don't think people want to know more so they can help you but just because they're curious about the disease ( or it's their first encounter with it ) Hope you stay ( semi ) healthy as you are now :)

Cheers to you too :)

you must have type 1 diabetes. if you are then i suggest that you should search for this song: A Little Bit Longer- by the Jonas Brothers. Nick Jonas wrote this song considering he has type 1 diabetes too.
