Okay, so does anyone have any tips to always be in range for T1D? It's Ramadan so my blood sugar is okay but I know the moment I'm gonna go back to eat normally it's gonna be very much messy.

Btw, if anyone has Ramadan tips on how not to cause bloodsugar spikes it would be amazing. I usually try to inject my insuline 20 min before eating but it does not always work.

That Pic is me after waking up for suhoor, suffering from low blood sugar so of course I had to eat the entire household, I put 5 units of insuline after realizing I might be high later on and as you see it's fine for a little while then BAM. 300 mg.

maybe the solution is that I just have to... refrain from eating too much carbs? but I've been fasting all day and those fine bouraks are waiting for me :(

I’ve finally gotten to try my first insulin pump! So far it’s been really great, although there’s a lot to learn and take into consideration, but I’ve always found it interesting to learn more about my illness and find ways to improve my treatment, so I don’t mind at all. Though I’d share something a little more personal, since it’s something I’ve been looking forward to for over a year now, and, well, I’m pumped to see how this will impact my day to day life! ☺️
