Is there any reason to say no to insulin or to not ask for it? Do you check your BS levels more often? Are the mealtimes/snacks more strict?
STM with a 21mo and man my fasting numbers will not get in check. So far it has been very hard to balance the different meal times and prep when I am solo parenting my toddler (constantly skipping snacks). My mealtime numbers are good but I’m not convinced I’m eating enough.
Whenever I bring up to a family member that I may go on insulin for fasting numbers or just in general, the response is always “oh no you don’t want that”. I’m assuming this is all social perception but I’d love to hear from others who have gone the medicated route.
