I wish the above was true! On keto low card for four months now with fasting from 8 pm to 1 pm next day. Bloods stubbornly at around 10 mmol will not go down only after eating. HOMAR tells me I am insulin resistant c peptide tells me my pancreas is producing some insulin, fasting glucose as bloods confirms my finger pricking. CGM confirms these trends! Not good.
Is there anything that can be done for insulin resistance in type 1 diabetics?
My 29 yr old daughter has been type 1 since age 3 and had some insulin resistance already but since becoming pregnant 30 weeks ago it’s now at ridiculous levels that she is now at crazy amounts of something like 1 unit of insulin to every 2.5 grams of carbs. Obviously I’m guessing once she gives birth it will reduce again but even still she had resistance going on before the pregnancy. I think that is what she said the Metformin is for but again that’s another medication they’re giving her which isn’t great so would love to know if there’s other things she can try. Thank you.😊
Your work has been so influential to me. I plan to read every article you’ve written!
