If you live with diabetes, those caring for you in the event of a severe hypo (low blood glucose levels) or hyper/DKA (high glucose levels) must know about your condition quickly. Find out more 👇👇👇

@parthaskar @DiabeticDadUK @cahmn @Tims_Pants @AdrianLong3 @LinsayHalladay @diabetes_chat @WilmotEmma @Kes_t1D_SW @LisWarren @chrisbrighty1 Been o the closed loop system has been such a game changer , I feel I have quality of life and that I control my #t1d not the other way around. The support from @TomasPGriffin was what I needed, he quite the motivator.
I feel grateful

@parthaskar @DiabeticDadUK @cahmn @Tims_Pants @AdrianLong3 @LinsayHalladay @diabetes_chat @WilmotEmma @Kes_t1D_SW @LisWarren @chrisbrighty1 If a person has tried everything & no matter what they do there Hba1c is always high, mental health is affected as you just don't know what else you can do, for yrs I've asked for this , but also I felt my insulin didn't work, felt trapped, it was a viscous circle.
Now 6.8%

So the #mentalhealth battle restarts. A young person who wanted to be a #paramedic is #emotionallylow as they don't know what it is so can't fix and back no job, no money feeling #sad noone gives people a chance if they risk been off sick, #genuinesick u going to #employ #train

[Emma @ejs29th]

I don't understand y can't #dwp #jobcenter #universalcredit #nhs when u nearly 19yr old all she wants to do is work, then health with no actual diagnosis stops her working as she ends up so poorly so they sack her.she has good months where she amazing and bad months no1 her fault

[Emma @ejs29th]

#t1d normally background then fricking horrible horrible day so reach for #hyposweets #comfortfood #don't care pressure of work too much probs wake up feeling more pants now

[Emma @ejs29th]

On holiday its not even that hot but yet again like every abroad holiday the plastic snaps and breaks so sensor fail, I've been in pool once.
Why does this happen every holiday? #t1d #closedloopsystem #dexcomg6 #dexcom #diabetic #insulinpumper

[Emma @ejs29th]

High blood glucose in #t2d not the same as #t1d I know there different but surely days in the 30's is not good or isthat because ive always been #t1d #diabetes #insulin #libre #novorapid #lantus #glargine wats the care they shud expect to receive seens as not been explained about

[Emma @ejs29th]

So I'm #t1d and obviously well confused by #t2d.my friend diagnosed not long ago under gp care on #novorapid #glargine now adding #Olympic I was really worried as #bloodglucose 30 + that took my #ketone monitor around they 0.1 phew #Question are they on set #insulin not carb to

[Emma @ejs29th]

Not carb to insulin generally 10 units to 1 insulin.drs are adding #Ozempic never been shown how to properly Inject didn't know to rotate I think I've scared them as blood sugars been so very high for days I was worried about #ketoacidosis have I scared them for no reason are
