I'm back... and feeling better
It's been a very long time since I've posted, but I have good news. I was diagnosed with T2 in March 2011. My mom died in 2006 from complications of type 1. I was on metformin for several years but went on insulin injections in March 2004 when my a1c was 12. I had relapsed in my recovery from binge eating disorder. I went to local outpatient and got back on track with mindful intuitive eating. I since have gone from 12 to 5.8 a1c and from 316 to 246 although weight loss is not my main focus anymore and health is. They have decreased my Novolog from 6 to 4 units and might be decreasing it more come March. I'm feeling better but scared of relapse so I commit to recovery every day. Hey, anyone using a CGM out there? I got the Dexcom G5 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System and have yet to start it but know it will really help because I have ADHD and routinely forget to test....

This where you phone can help you! There are many apps. Care zone. Health choice. Vitality. Just type in apps ( apps to help remind you to take your meds.) And wahhh lahhh! They have alarms, incentives, some even have group conversations that you can get involved with. Some even give you coupons to help bring down the cost of meds. For my app. Work incentives and bonus points to cut my insurance cost has been a blessing and kept me on track to take my meds on time daily. Which is the key for my success as well as reminding me to eat, grab a snack, and how much sleep I should get. My A1C went from 13.7 to 4.9 with the help of my (New Doctor) I'm not much of a fan for technology. But the world of free apps has been an amazing change on how my health has improved dramatically. Good luck!
