I´m back
@all: THANKS EVERYONE!!!!! Yesterday at the work I got low blood suger (and not low hba1c like i wroght, i was not "clear" in my head and could think right) and somethimes they are worser than other...this time a queit big one. Than i get angry and can scream alot (louder than normal ) and did it this time. I live a normal life I think...ok...i have to take injections six times a day but I eat and drink almost everything. Im not hide with my diabetes but i don´t run around and talk about it and here in sweden I think almost everyone knows what it is so they don´t look strange at me when i´m taking my injections. Don´t know how it´s in the rest of the world....but it´s so that finland have most people with diabestes and sweden second place in the world....so we have lots of them. And more are joining badly. Why finland and sweden are on the top in the world with most diabetic they don´t know. These days newborn children have "typ2"-diabetic that for 10-20 years ago only older persons got. But they think that it´s the lifestyle we now life, the mothers eating worser and are bigger and are smoking alot, but they don´t know for sure. But earlyer they said that the diabetes jumped over one generation (so it was for me) so my children won´t get it but there childen will get it, but now they don´t know. Today everyone seems to get it. I have "typ1"-diabetic and got it when I was child. Sweden have a very good diabestes-care and we don´t have to pay for the stuff we need (but they want to change it, and have tryed to do it to). And my HBA1C are very good, right now and almost every time it´s around 6.5 (and it should be around 5 - 6,5). Lower to have it it´s hard, than you get low blood suger all the time. So my doctors are happy over me So my life is very normal i think....and i don´t think that mutch about it. I feel free and there´s many more people around the world with worser sickness, so I´m queit happy that I just have diabetes. But somethimes i just HATE MY DIABETES and just want to cry [cry][cry] But well it was worser when i´m was young and all the other kids was eating candy and everything....than somethimes it was hard. I got my diabetes when i was six yeas old, so it´s apart of my life now. I´m glad that I´m not like almost everyone other diabetic...i´m abit strange When i´m drinking beer and other alcoholoc drinks my blood suger get high and many many other diabetic got the blood suger low...and have to eat all the time and before they go to sleep, so that I don´t need. And I have talked about this to many diabetic and alost everyone have the same problems with the blood suger. And I have been drunk for a long time now and never got any problems with low blood suger or someting like that. And I know what to do the day after....ok, the blood suger are abit hige the day after and that´s not optimal, but I can´t be a prototyp diabetic, I have to live to @Jonatan: Yes i´m funny sober to, but do you really think i´m drinking just to get funny??? THANKS AGEIN EVERYBODY!!!! |

Thanx for sharing your thoughts about your diabetes!
You can count yourself lucky that beer/alcohol don't mess too much with your blood sugar...like you say....most other people with diabetes need to "plan" to get drunk because they need to eat a lot before, during and after drinking. I'm glad you are feeling better Peter!!! We need a happy Krapplund around the forum....not an angry one |

Krapplund.
Diabetes runs in my family, my mother, grandmother, aunt and sister all have it. I don't have it though, and I'm happy about that. Injections six times a day sound terrible, my family members only need to take it twice a day. Are your diabetes that bad? :( Take care, Christina |

You can be happy!
Injections just twice a day? Than they have "typ2"-diabetes....older persons that got it late in life almost everytime have it (and thay can hold the blood sucker nice with right food and exercise together with the injections or tablets). But your sister? Strange...maybe she have still insulin-production so she just needs to take the injections twice a day. Think that my diabestes don´t are so bad.....I have a good HBA1C, I could take away som of the injections but than would my HBA1C be higher and jump more.....and that I don´t want. |

Peter, This is a good place to get angry about things like Diabetes, I have a few friends with type 2 diabetes and had one childhood friend with type 1. I don't need to tell you to be careful but the worst risk for my friend with type 1 was getting pregnant, so that's a worry you don't have!
