http://typeonenation.org/community_blogs/b/brianc/archive/2009/06/04/highs-and-lows-and-exhaustion.aspxBeen way way way too busy to casually surf the internet, so I haven&#39;t been here on Juvenation much lately. And obviously haven&#39;t posted anything here lately. But here I am, and here&#39;s my day: Sugar&#39;s a little high this a.m. Light breakfastenTelligent Community 5.6.583.13797 (Build: 5.6.583.13797)http://typeonenation.org/community_blogs/b/brianc/archive/2009/06/04/highs-and-lows-and-exhaustion.aspx#21901Thu, 09 Jul 2009 01:11:50 GMTa8fbca6e-2c1c-489a-9d96-f6aaf60cc060:21901Melissa<p>Yeah, man, I hear you. &nbsp;I also don&#39;t like the idea of a 24/7 thingamajig. &nbsp;And if I told you about all my lows, you&#39;d probably think I was out of control. &nbsp;</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://typeonenation.org/aggbug.aspx?PostID=21901" width="1" height="1">http://typeonenation.org/community_blogs/b/brianc/archive/2009/06/04/highs-and-lows-and-exhaustion.aspx#21813Wed, 08 Jul 2009 12:16:43 GMTa8fbca6e-2c1c-489a-9d96-f6aaf60cc060:21813BrianC<p>I&#39;ve considered the idea of a pump, but it might not be a practical solution for me, and I don&#39;t like the idea of something stuck to me 24/7.</p> <p>I don&#39;t really struggle as much as the entries in this blog might seem to indicate. My diabetes has been in decent control for over 24 years, with no complications. I hope, and expect, that to continue.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://typeonenation.org/aggbug.aspx?PostID=21813" width="1" height="1">http://typeonenation.org/community_blogs/b/brianc/archive/2009/06/04/highs-and-lows-and-exhaustion.aspx#21703Wed, 08 Jul 2009 05:00:21 GMTa8fbca6e-2c1c-489a-9d96-f6aaf60cc060:21703Melissa<p>You really shouldn&#39;t treat lows with solid food. &nbsp;Stick to sugary liquids (juice). &nbsp;You&#39;ll just feel starving waiting for all that food to kick in and overeat and then you&#39;ll go high. &nbsp;This roller coaster will make you crazy!</p> <p>And, I&#39;m seriously not one to talk (see my blog entry), but maybe you should switch to the pump?? &nbsp;You seem to struggle! &nbsp;I&#39;ve never used Lantus, only Humalin N, but there long-acting insulins can be kinda surprising, and you might need the one-insulin-only consistency of a pump, huh??</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://typeonenation.org/aggbug.aspx?PostID=21703" width="1" height="1">
