Diabetes can be very emotional. Frustration, fear, sadness, despair, overwhelm, depression and fatigue are all very common. As scary as it may be, one of the most healing things you can do is express yourself. It may be a conversation, a blog, a tweet, a story, a journal, a song, a chat, a good cry, an email to no one, a…

The moment you insert and you know you hit a small nerve that you will feel constantly for the next 3 days. But you really don’t want to waste the supplies or restick yourself- so you choose pain for 3 days. #diabetes #diabeteslife #insulinpump #anotherdayoflife🙏❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnv_srdnJWT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hye7pdd1gx6c

So after my swim today I was relaxing in the pool, enjoying the day with my eyes closed and missed the cues that my BG was dropping.

BGs are running high the last 3 days despite no carbs and extra boluses. Increased my basal too. Ever since I used the first vial if insulin from a new shipment of 6 vials all from the same batch/lot. Fearful they are all defective. But how do you prove it? #diabeteslife #checkingandchecking #norefunds #diabetes #pumper #humalog #HyperglycemiaMystery https://www.instagram.com/p/BnKDOP-nyF0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z1bi0qli9miz

Using a home test to self check. Under 7 which is my goal. But good insight for making some adjustments. Time for pump setting review! #diabetes #PersistenceNotPerfection https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm_Fd16nTZR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=t3875i4pw94z
