I'm fairly newly diagnosed and I had my first dream last night where I obviously had diabetes and it was the main feature of the dream. I was at some kind of event and felt a bit funny. I didn't have my blood glucose monitor with me but I had a Dexcom on my leg (in real life I use a Libre). I removed the transmitter and pushed it back in again, and this allowed the face of the transmitter to display what my blood sugar levels were. It said 32.5 ! I also then realised that I didn't have any insulin with me, and I also couldn't find my partner anywhere. I was wondering around thinking that I needed to get home and inject myself, and that I should probably check for ketones. Then I woke up!
I have a couple of other health conditions and I'd say I have one or two dreams per year that are specifically about that condition, but they don't seem to feature at all in my "regular" dreams. I'm curious to hear if anyone else has had a dream specifically about being diabetic, or if you're aware that you're diabetic in dreams about other things?
