Welcome back to The Poetic Diabetic!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Typically, when writing these blogs, I usually format them like a typical student blog post, something that wouldn\u2019t look too alien in a Scholastic News magazine. That is a tried and true formula for a successful blog, but it\u2019s pretty bland. Go on The Onion News Network, and you\u2019ll see eye-catching titles like \u201c8 best languages no one has heard of\u201d or \u201ctop 10 most pretentious instruments of all time\u201d. Now that\u2019s the stuff that gets headlines!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In order to ensure the success of my blog, this special article will be a top 6 list, following in the footsteps of the ever reputable news network \u201cThe Onion\u201d. Introducing your new clickbait title :<\/p>\n

Top 6 Reasons Why Diabetes is an art, not a science<\/strong><\/p>\n

a.k.a. The Hidden Difficulties of Diabetes<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Exercise tends to make me drop very low<\/strong>. There\u2019s nothing like feeling the burn from a long run or finally making it home after a twelve-mile bike ride. For a normal non-diabetic person, the act of working out should be mindless and relaxing. For me, working out is stressful, and often time-consuming. While I can\u2019t put any exact number on how low I drop, thirty minutes of intense cardio plus thirty minutes of weights causes my blood glucose down by at least 100 mg\/l. Just to work out, I often have to eat a carb-filled snack. That almost negates the whole point of working out! If I don\u2019t turn off my insulin and\/or I don\u2019t have a snack, I\u2019ll go low and have to pause my workout.<\/li>\n
  2. Being ill causes my levels to skyrocket<\/strong>. Almost everyone\u2019s had a common cold at some point. For most people, they can just brush it off. Sure, they might have to take a day off or two, but that isn\u2019t a major disrupter to their health. Whenever I get sick, my blood sugar typically needs to raise to fight off the infection. For some god-forsaken reason, my body decides to raise my blood glucose to above 300 on most of my sick days, with insulin doing very little to actually lower it. This means that even on the mornings after my sick day, I still feel unwell from the effects of the prolonged high.<\/li>\n
  3. Missing meals causes me to slowly go low over time.<\/strong> It\u2019s not an uncommon practice in my house to skip breakfast if I\u2019m running late for school. Before my diabetes, this wasn\u2019t really a problem. Yeah, I\u2019d grow hungry before lunch, but it was my fault. If I wanted to eat, I should have gotten up on time. With my diagnosis, skipping meals became a bit of a problem. Mostly, skipping breakfast would be fine. I eat lunch like five hours later anyway, so the long-term effects of fasting don\u2019t really kick in. The main problem I face is with dinner. If I skip dinner or have something without any carbs, I tend to slowly go lower during the night. More often than not, this usually ends up with me going low at four in the morning, a personal pastime of mine!<\/li>\n
  4. Speaking of being up at four in the morning, and it\u2019s association with diabetes, being up a four in the morning really doesn\u2019t bode well with my diabetes<\/strong>. Like many teens, I\u2019m not unfamiliar with the concept of pulling an all-nighter. In fact, my regular sleep schedule tends to start with me falling asleep past midnight. Still, that\u2019s not what you\u2019re all here to hear about. The days after particularly turbulent nights of sleep are usually one\u2019s filled with the sounds of constant high alarms. It\u2019s like my phone\u2019s taunting me for not choosing to snooze on my wake up alarm and sleep in. If I were to guess why this was happening, I\u2019m guessing the hormones associated with restlessness affect blood sugar as well, since it feels like every hormone affects blood sugar.<\/li>\n
  5. Shooting insulin into muscles supposedly increases the effect threefold<\/strong>. This one hasn\u2019t happened to me often. I usually use my trusty Omnipod to manage my insulin, and have needles that don\u2019t usually reach muscle. Still I had this happen to me one time when eating pasta. As some of you may know, injecting insulin into muscle increases the effect of the insulin, while also shortening the effect of the insulin. I had a bit of a conundrum, as I went low while waiting for my meal, just to go high later thanks to the long-burning nature of pasta carbs. My Dexcom readings looked like a sickle (please google if you don\u2019t know the instrument), going from flat to a dramatic curve. So, I wouldn\u2019t recommend shooting into muscle; it also kinda hurts too.<\/li>\n
  6. Snacking<\/strong>, I do it, you do it, I probably do it more than I should. It\u2019s a very common pastime to me, and one I got quite lucky with regarding my diabetes. After all, it\u2019s an illness where the medicine\u2019s literally candy, what more could a hungry teen want? Still, I honestly overindulge in the sweets. Even if I do bolus, continuously eating carbs slowly raises my blood glucose. I really should stop doing that, but damn, Reece\u2019s Cups are too good.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So, that\u2019s my top 6 list. I wanted to write more, but I didn\u2019t have any more good ones to write about. Plus, as usual, this blog is approaching the one thousand word mark. I hope you liked this new type of blog, though! It honestly wasn\u2019t as experimental as I planned it to be, but it was still fun writing something with a different structure. From one diabetic to another, see you later!<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    And remember, an apple a day keeps the doctor away, but too many, and the endocrinologist will make you pay.<\/p>\n
