I’ve only logged into this forum recently.
I hadn’t quite understood the difference between T1 and T2.
But reading between the lines it seems that with T1 - BG control is less about carbs and more about compensating for the carbs consumed at each meal with ‘fast-acting’ insulin, rather than an overall need to constantly balance carb intake with BG and BG spikes.
So there is a big difference between ‘managing’ T1 and T2?
Have I understood this correctly?
I’m posting this on the ‘general’ forum because it doesn’t seem to deserve its own ‘thread’ , but I think it’s relevant.
( I am T2)
Maybe a ‘moderator’ could find the most relevant thread to add this to?
