So I am week three in my new college yr and have not been in college since 2004 so needless to say I am slightly rust on the who diabetes and college thing. Well I have my classes on tues and thurs 5 classes to be exact. this results in class starting at 8 am and last class being done at 7:55 pm. I thought this would work out great since it is all in 2 days and I would get the rest of the week for work and house stuff. Ohhh no was I wrong on could be doing something wrong not sure which yet. So it starts with a low or two during my first class which is 8am to 9:55 am I have tried changing the basal and maybe I should fix my correction dose or maybe my carb count for breakfast? then by noon food or not I am running 180 mg/dl or above. So lots more dosing going on from then on to try to get it to my target of 90 to 145. I sit and study or take exams or participate in discussions nothing to dramatic. I will say sleep has become A wish more then a fact. The classes are not hard in learning they just require study time. My sugar has forced me to step out of the class during a quiz to eat a snack and test again before going back in ( I am so glad I decided to talk with disability services to cover my butt when this happens ) I am not so much embarassed by having to take care of the diabetes it is more of the I so know how to take care of diabetes why is this happening issue!! My professors are all either nurses or doctors so I am covered in terms that they understand and work with me on this but I do not want this to be an ongoing issue. there has got to be a way to get this right. For goodness sakes I have had type 1 for over 16 yrs and been a medic for 8 so what is the deal already!! I am so frestrated by all of this. I have A pump and CGM so I am blessed with the tools I have at hand but come on any advice guys??

for me now its the 5th week of #1 year in secondary school the thing is that after i have lunch about at 13:00 and when it comes to 15:00 i feel that i have a low and i eat smth when i come back home at 19:00 i see i have a high :S i hope that these months my doctor will put my therapy to insulin pump

I will say that my pump did change everything when I was in school and made everything easier to manage I didn't have the lows if we were late for lunch or highs if I couldn't shot up in time it helped a lot and so has my CGM to alert me ahead of time to the low or high trend on its way and allows me to correct a lot sooner then with just testing my fingers
