‘I now have arthritis. Is it because I am old? Or maybe just because I collect health conditions? Does it have anything to do with perimenopause? Is Mercury in retrograde? Whatever the reason, it sucks. And it hurts. A new year and a new diagnosis. #diabetogenic diabetogenic.blog/2025/02/17/s...

So, what’s new with you?
Is it too late to say Happy New Year? Probably, but does anyone actually believe that social norms still exist in the world the way it is these days? And so – happy New Year to you. I’ve been absen…

My favourite meal: pasta ceci. Tin of chickpeas, some tomatoes (tinned fine) and some small pasta. I fancy it up by adding some rosemary from the garden crisped up in oil. (But only if I can be bothered.)

Doing the hard work in between sessions as I try to determine the superior bun: Kanelsnegle (cinnamon) or Kardemummabullar (cardamom). More work to do.

I just called my mum to ask for Nonna’s crostoli recipe. ‘Enough flour’ is apparently an acceptable measurement to Italian mammas. ‘What does that mean exactly,’ I asked mum. ‘You’ll know,’ she replied.

Professor David O’Neal opening his session about AID in older PWD begins with a tribute to Mary Ryan who lived with T1D for over 70 years. When she was diagnosed she was told by her doctors she had 10 years max to live. This is the level of diabetes non-compliance I aspire to! #ATTDAsia24 #dedoc°

Final session on the final session of #ATTDAsia24 is about diabetes and ageing. I very much appreciate the increasing research in the ages and stages of diabetes. As people with diabetes get older, understanding what happens as we age is essential. #Dedoc° #GettingOlder

I really like waking up in the morning, opening Bluesky and seeing names of old #DOC friends who I’d lost contact with. (Also like opening up Bluesky and not having the diet police coming at me!!)

Last night my dexcom alarm went off like a million times, and while I appreciate it AND it was correct that my blood sugar kept going low, today I woke up feeling like I had a bad hangover. Anyone else having one of those days? 🩵 #type1diabetes #bloodsugar
