Had a bit of a rough start. Spent the first week in the hospital with Dk and had my spleen removed in August. Anyway, now I&#8217;m trying to do all the stuff we&#8217;re supposed to, exercise, count carbs, etc. So far so good, my last two a1c&#8217;s were 5.9. My prefered method of exercise is Mt. biking although I also run or swim when I have less time. I&#8217;ve run in to a problem recently with trying to test in the rain, and wondered if anyone had a solution for this. Also, I&#8217;ve noticed that it seems like alot of people are using the pump, and I&#8217;m wondering what the pros and cons are, especially for people who exercise alot. Right now I&#8217;m using lantus 13 u. at night and novolog for meals at a ratio of 1 u for  30g of carb. I don&#8217;t always use anything for breakfast or lunch if I say under 30 g of carb.I&#8217;m rarely over 150 after meals or below 90 during the day. In the morning I&#8217;m between 100-120. Oh and I still drink alot of coffee, two 16 cups a day. Does anybody have opinions on this? Im 39 and, except for the obvious, healthy, good cholesterol, blood pressure, etc. no retinopathy or other complications that I know so far.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi everyone, I&#8217;m a type 1, diagnosed in April 09.
