Diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in August 1995. Diagnosed the same day that Windows 95 came out so that explains why I crash, sometimes. Started commuting last year by bike. Long time since I was on a bicycle. The worst A1C ever at 9.6. Last checkup in November, A1C was 6.1. Weight is a healthy 180 lbs for my 6'2" frame. Feeling better than ever since diabetes was imposed on me. The regular exercise has been a big help. I take 3 injections of Novarapid and 2 of Lantus everyday. I test my blood sugar 4 times a day. I haven't had a serious low blood sugar reaction in over 7 years. I have computer skills and I found a job where I am really safe, an emergency department. I see dozens of doctors and nurses everyday. Never needed any help so far.
