These are my truths…I now realize that:
- Low carb without TAG provides only a limited success.
- MDI (without combo bolus or 24-hour basal delivery capability) provides only a limited success.
- Using Symlin without both a pump and TAG is frustrating and fruitless.
- Exercise without the ability to "turn down" your basal is not very much fun.
Low Carb + TAG + Pump + Symlin + Exercise
Here's hoping we ALL find the combination of tools & tips that help us feel healthy and in control.
(p.s. - if you want to learn more about TAG, Total Available Glucose, read this discussion, the whole thing - https://forum.tudiabetes.org/topics/dual-wave-bolus?xg_source=activity)
