- Hey Guys!
You'll be glad to know I'm ok but please make sure you are too!
I woke up with my sugars at 16.8 and my ketones 4.6 so I text my nurse for advice and she told me to go to the hospital.
I felt ok and was close to not going but I'm glad I did!
The bruises are worth it, at least I'm healthy!
Here's hoping I can stay on track....
Take Care xo

poor thing! hope you feel 100% again quickly. always knocks my confidence for awhile after. I was in hospital in Nov with a sickness bug. max ktones. no fun but huge thanks to the NHS. 4 times they've saved my life now :) thanks for sharing your experience
Hope you get your pump love
i have the same meter but here in canada it;s called the precision neo the strips are blue and purple and the us verison does not test for ketones only the canadian and uk one glad you are doing better
scary! my daughter was dx aged 28 months and is now 8. she has an omnipod and we love it. good luck for a pump xx
Take care to sweetie ❤️
I'm glad that you are OK and you caught it in time. DKA isn't anything to play around with. Your poor arm, though!
Hi Sarah, maybe due to my bad english but I wasnt got what was the reason on backstory where those getones came from? I thought that for getones blood sugar must be really wrong (hi) for a long time?
forget the hospital listen to jukebox podcasts
I currently have ketones of 4.7 but I don't want to tell my mum cause she's going to be annoyed. I haven't been checking my bloods for days at a time and I haven't been taking insulin regularly. I don't know what to do 😓
hi nice videos i wanted to ask are you still using the freestyle libre and would you reccomend it?.
Great video Sarah! I just subscribed to your channel. You do a great job of bringing awareness to T1D and capturing the seriousness of the disease. I'm glad you are okay.
I just started a youtube channel for T1D support. Please check it out if you get a chance, I would love to get your feedback :)
I've been diagnosed since 8/9/10 and I know that having DKA is the worse thing ever! I have been hospitalised twice because of it first time I only had to stay over night but second time had to stay for 3 night and was poked and prodded every hour :( but I hope you are feeling better and if you ever want to chat I follow you on insta at anniethediabetic Xx
Are you still using the G6 and are you self funding ?
Hey I have a question I got my test scanner and the 14 days are over yes I am a kid but how do I pull it off i have seen ur video and youre scanner almost fell off butmy scanner is very sticky around so?
Wait, what is a Ketones meter?! I wonder if it is a UK thing only? We still pee on strips over here in the US (unless I live in a cave and I am unaware of this lol). Thats too cool.
I'm Canadian and I have one. They have pee ones and blood ones.
if you ca find the nova max test for ketones and it also your blood sugar but you need two strips for it
as here i from bc burnaby
lol O Good 👍
Hi Sarah...I watched several of your videos which I really like, but I see almost every time very high BS values. This can't be good...you really have to talk to your specialist about increasing your Lantus, which is the base of your insulin need. I use Lantus once a day, it works almost 24 hours and is the basis of a steady BS. Maybe a pump is the solution for you. Please, take good care of yourself, you are still very young, unlike me ;-). I didn't take care of my Type1 for several years and am facing the consequences now due to high BS values. I don't wanna scare you but living your life 'on the high BS end' really will affect your health in time. Take care!
where is your diabetic tattoo when you raise your sleeves on your shirt it's gone?
