Ya buddy

Wow puss plugs are life

That’s a fucking lion

It’s covered if you have private health care I believe!

Lmao well I’m sorry for your diagnosis but glad you were able to get the medical attention you needed!

For sure! I had friends with the exact same symptoms so I didnt look into it. When I stopped bfding though… the symptoms got 10x worst and sent me to the ER!

Same here. Crazy weight loss, I got light headed when getting up from the couch or bending over to pick something up, peeing 3 times in the night and soooo thirsty. I was post partum though and breastfeeding so I assumed all that was just exhaustion from that.

LMAO! Amazing watermark!

Also congrats :)

That’s a steal! The pattern is SOOOOO complicated.

Yeah… he’s your cat now.

Check out r/gestationaldiabetes

Ummm yes it does? The type of treatment is 100% based on the type of diabetes. Type 1 cannot be treated with diet and exercise (although it helps). I was recently diagnosed with Type 2, and was started on an oral medication along with very low carb diet. My BG was barely affected. They sent me for an anti-body test which ended up positive. I was subsequently told to stop the medication and started mealtime insulin.

Aw man I was about to comment the same…

Thank you for your comment! I’m looking forward to getting it, it’s only been 6 months and my fingers are hurting! I can’t even fathom how lifelong diabetics’ fingers are!

I also wonder why all alcohol makes me feel that way the next day, except the zero residual sugar wine! Once I get the Dexcom, I’ll check my readings overnight.

Definitely! I don’t have a CGM yet (I did a 10 day trial with a Dexcom and just waiting for my insurance company to approve! LOVED IT) but I test very often. Foot on the floor, before and after all meals and at bedtime. I’m not worried about missing a high :)

Hihi actually Ontarian! But thank you for the info :)

That makes sense. I always make sure to drink lots of water when I’m consuming alcohol.

I guess I should just stick to the zero sugar wines that don’t make me feel like shit during / the next day. I had a friend visit last night for the first time in 2 years and I probably had 3 glasses and I felt 100% today and my BG has been really good.

It’s definitely the feeling of a hangover and not a BG low. I’ve had lows before that have woken me up in the night and it’s not the same.

I guess I must be really sensitive to sugars in alcohol because I definitely didn’t feel it with the zero residual sugar wines.

Slicked back?! This is PUSHED back.

I’d buy it. But not if I gotta buy them in bulk, even if it’s not worth it for you.

Are we even gonna get anything now?

Not trying to be funny…

My (fixed) female cat does this (the repositioning) and constantly tries to put her butt in my face.

Dad was like NAH THIS IS OVER
