Ok. My BG was okay last night all night. Then I woke up @ 446! When I got my bolus (I am on the pump by the way) My Pod started beeping and I had an occlusion (my insulin got backed up) anyways, we changed my Pod and checked my BG and keytones. My BG...

The Water Experiment: Day 1/Alyssa: HYDRATED Everyone participating in The Water Experiment can track their results however they prefer; I, however, have decided to post mine in my blog. I have also divided my results into two categories: weekend and...

Right now I'm sick. I have strep throat and bronictis and my blood sugars have been extremely high like higher than I have ever been ( 541, 539, 510, 536 ). My parents have always said that your blood sugar goes up when your sick, but its never happened...

Hello All, My son Connor was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes on December 23rd. We have noticed that he has had more accidents and has had some behavior issues in the past couple of weeks. His sugars have been pretty good as have his ketones. He is not...

Please let me start off my saying forgive me. I know this is a diabetes site, I know I probably should be writing..Excuse me typing about my wacky BS, my horrific neuropathy, the fact that I am leaning about 3 whole inches in front of my laptop, depending...

So, derived from my forum post about whether there may or may not be a hydration - blood sugar correlation, the fantastic Gina (and yes, I intend to continue with the praise until this excitement wears of for me from the new group) created a new group...

It is always fun for me when I find a new place to connect with others who have a shared experience. While my daughter would say that I really don't understand how she feels ( and she is right), she doesn't understand that my experience as a mother...

Yesterday, January 23, I had a skating competition! I came in 5th place! My skating coach said I was skating faster than usual and that this competition was a big step for me. I was especially happy about it because this is my last competition for a little...

I just discovered this site today and it is such a great concept! I was wondering if anyone on here is a part of the gator nation?

So, I've been part of Juvenation now for about 5 days. And I have very quickly found that it is easily more addicting than Facebook. I feel like every free second I have (and still other times when I don't actually have free time), I spend on...

I have chosen which pump to get! I chose... Minimed! I chose minimed because I think it will be a better pump to start out on for the first time. I found it easier to do the things like bolusing when I got to see it. Now I just have to wait and wait and...

is anybody on this site from minnesota i havn't seen anybody from it yet

My dad. Oh bless his heart. He is the most hilarious and creatively goofy man I know. I called him and mom up one day a week ago to tell them about the Walk. I was so excited. I needed a good team name, because I was forming a team of all my friends here...

I am pleased to announce that there are new additions to Juvenation.org today! Here they are: • Permissions: Added permission-based rules across the site User over 18 can not see members under 18 unless they are friends. • Groups: when you click...

We have planned a huge active weekend. Ethan has a weekend hockey tournament. We will be playing at Ferris State. A hotel stay is planned as well. So let me sum this up. Friday the kids will get out of school so we can get to the first game. Then a potluck...

Yesterday, January 21, was 24 years to the day a doctor told me I was diabetic. Somehow, every year, this "anniversary" of sorts is kind of...well, not sad, but perhaps sobering. Like a slight weight that I'm reminded of having to carry...

What? Are you kidding me? Beemer just went through a nasty flu. Our whole house has been affected (infected, too, I suppose). I'm actually typing this through blurry eyes and a with a brain that has more mucus content than cereberal matter. My five...

Who am I? My name is Adam. I am a son. I am a fiancé. I am a friend. I am a nephew. I am a cousin. I am a teacher. I am a student. I am a Missouri Tiger (Go Mizzou!). I am a Liberty Blue Jay . I am an accountant (well, almost). I am a Chiefs &...

As time goes on and our kids experience new things a bigger smile is put on my face. Especially for our little E. In the past month so much has happened for him. Well lets be realistic it has been this week! He has one his first full ice hockey game....

I’m a recovering diabulimic. There, I said it. Now, let me tell you my story. In high school I had a very tough time. I got so sick of following a plan. I just ate and ate and ate. And of course if you eat more you’re going to gain weight...

So, I'm NEW to Juvenation and, well, actually, pretty NEW to diabetes. I was just diagnosed less than 7 months ago and still learning. I guess I'll always be learning though. The first few months have been tough. Trying to transition and adapt...

If Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems interest you this is for you... Dexcom is looking to do some market research with type 1 patients and they are giving a $20 Amazon.com gift certificate to every single person who completes this really short survey...

So let's play 'Why Alyssa Doesn't Have her Pump on at [Nearly] 1 in the Morning,' shall we? Got changed into my pajamas just a little bit a go; got a drink of water, brushed my teeth, tested my blood sugar, and all that good stuff. Sat...

Around here, our Walk is March 7th this year in Des Moines. I just changed my facebook status to something like "Join my JDRF Walk team!" and in just a few minutes, I'm already getting feedback from friends. It feels so good. I've even...

I am proud to announce that today at around 530pm New York time we hit 2000 members!!!! This is so exciting! I made an image for you guys to send to all your friends and family with diabetes or without to help get us even more members! Just Right Click...
