Sorry to hear about the DKA/seizures. That’s scary! That’s what I’m talking about. As a guy, I’d be so happy to be alive, how much I weighed would be the last thing on my mind. Apparently, not the great majority of women though...Lol

The DKA/seizures was point where my wife's doctor declared her a Type 1 diabetic. The Type 2 treatments were not working. She has a Dexcom G6 sensor and Tandem TSlim2 insulin pump now. Update of firmware to the new IQ release on the TSlim2 supports adaptive shutoff on the low boundary of blood glucose and ability to add extra insulin on the high end. She still has to input carbs at a meal to input an adjusting bolus. She has a meter that does both glucose and ketones as that is critical for a Type 1.

We thought the pump was going to keep her in the safe zone. It did for glucose and ketones, but she still had 2 more seizures on Feb 23. This time diagnosed epileptic. The anti-epileptic medication has kept that in check and her glucose levels are much better controlled. Aside from a restriction from driving, all it pretty normal.
