Guest guest Posted May 28, 2004 Report Share Posted May 28, 2004 Just wanted to come by & say thanks for the invite to this club. It means alot to me to have some type of support regarding my type one diabetes. I love the idea of having recipes on here, that helps tremendously. To tell you alittle about myself, I was diagnosed with type one diabetes 2 years ago. I was having some lab work done for some upcoming surgery and I got a phone call from my PCP (who is also a diabetic on the pump) telling me that I have diabetes & that I needed to come in and get educated....here I am, 2 yrs later and Im on Humalog 75/25 injection pen. Im a school teacher (out for the summer, YEAH!) and we have 2 wonderful sons...who keep me veryyyyyy active with baseball, archery and scouts etc...my hubby is my childhood sweetheart and hes a firefighter/paramedic.(and very educated in diabetes, thank gawd) Recently I was having some problems with my counts being too high and we had my insulin adjusted, so now Im doing pretty well. I stay at a carb count of 165 per day and I can barely make that...but I do try to reach it as much as I can. Im not knowledeable to all the numbers and what they all mean...I just take my insulin and make sure my counts are good...but Im hoping to learn more about the disease itself. Ok, enuf said....thank you again !! Huggs, Traci ( Texas) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
