I am not a medical professional

I am not a doctor or a nurse. I am a person who has lived with Type 1 diabetes for many years — since I was five. What you read here is my own story and my own experience. It is not medical advice. Please seek proper advice from your own diabetes team before you change anything about your treatment.
