Hi. I have had Type 1 for about 18 years now. Here for about the past week, my sugars have been within the "normal range" without next to any insulin at all! I have been taking my usual night shot of Lantus, which is 13 units before bed. I eat like I normally do so I don't understand why...

As I have mentioned before, one of my favorite parts of the Promise Campaign is getting to hear the feedback from the meetings. More often that not, I hear about the overwhelming positive responses from Members of Congress and the outpouring of support for type 1 research. Hearing about the meeting experiences...

Hey all, Never really did this before. Well, what I mean is I never sat down and told my whole story. I guess I never wanted everyone to know. In part it is because it's not a happy story. I was diagnosed July 7th 1985. Looking back I had all the symptoms. But after loosing my lunch after drinking...

About a week ago my endo gave me Apidra to try and I don't know if it was that, or possibly pregnancy, but my post meal and pre breakfast/post wake up numbers have been over 200, and sometimes climbing. I switched back to my trusty novolog this morning, wound up with one low, changed my target blood...

Since moving out to college, she is now at 10+. I am at a loss for what to do. She does not want to discuss this...

I was just wondering why are people diagnosed with diabetes at different ages. I know some people that had it since they were 5 and some people who were diagnosed in their 20s. How could doctors not catch on during a check up visit?

I should have figured... Yesterday was a great day, with unusually great blood sugar numbers....despite disconnecting from her pump for a few hours while she played in the water. So last night when Charlotte asked for a piece of cake for dessert, I gladly obliged and simply bolused accordingly. An hour...
