Sorry to hijack your thread. It's just that I think the issues of type 2s and type 1s are so vastly different. What is "normal" for a "normal" person or even a type 2 is slightly dangerous for a type 1.

and I agree with you that type 1 and 2s' have their different situations. I think type 1s' have much varied differences from other type 1s'. When I post, I am always just posting with type 2s' in mind as that is what I am, but then I'm not sure if I'm a classic type 2. I might have gotten diabetes by being predisposed through chemical exposure many years ago to the chemical "doxin", also known as "Agent Orange", which has been proven to lead to diabetes and many other diseases.......
don't apologize for a hijack, that is just my sick humor, I didn't mean anything by it other than trying to make a pun with the word brittle... I think it is such a funny word to describe diabetes...
Peanut brittle... Brittle as in something old and decrepid. Brittle a something that is very fragile.... I don't know, but it seems there could be a better descriptive word for a type 1 that has swinging numbers from carbs...
Also.... I don't remember for sure if it was you or in what thread I read it, but if you check your BG with a meter and it says "LO", it doesn't mean your blood glucose is low, it means your blood sample was too low to get a reading, so use another stick and try again...
