Looking for the type 1 folks
I have type 1, and have been taking insulin for 20 years. I currently take 5 injections a day, and the "thread" I started was about the violent reaction I have to help when my blood sugars drop extremely low. Although it doesn't happen too often, when it does it's around 3 AM, and it is horrible. I have no memory of any of it until after my housemate has been able to force me to ingest sugar in some form. I started the thread on Sunday, and was very excited that some people had shared that experience and had advice for me. I would like to continue that conversation, but I don't know where they are. Unfortunately, I am close to illiterate with technology. Probably anybody else would have no trouble reconnecting.
Anyway, I have switched my Lantus to morning, and last night I was shockingly high, but I took 1.5 units of humulog, and this morning I was 40...which actually is not a problem for me, though I know for others it is extreme. I am a tiny person, and I seem very sensitive to changes in medication, amounts, schedules, diets... I am going to keep with the morning Lantus for awhile to see if it works out.
