I’ve been T1D for 41 years… been through all the nonsense as discussed by Dr Cywes…. I’ve not used a pump as I am effectively zero carb so no ability for anyone to calculate my insulin needs based on the current protocol…. Wear a CGM constantly and I have no problem with my blood sugar being in the 70s to 80s…. All the medical people worry themselves sick about hypos… but i don’t….
While the work of Bernstein is foundational, this work and that of many others in this symposium continues to build upon and augment the teachings of the Sage of Mamaroneck. The greater good is served with wellness for all.
I have been using Medtronic since 2000. I have never had any trouble. My CDE taught me well. My A1C went from 7 to 5.6 down to 4.6 today. I use 780g today in manual mode. Thought about DIY pump but I hate the inaccuracies of Dexicom. Tried for 3 months could not trust it and went back to Medtronics. I know several Type 1s that tried same results. My endo wanted me to try Tslim but they have too many problems and a weak screen and poor customer service.
It seems unwise to treat hypoglycaemia with sucrose/fructose containing remedies - some of us will have long term damage from long time on insulin and use of such remedies, why continue it even if hypos get somewhat less severe and frequent.?
