Where is the lie
Random thing that sucks about having type 1 diabetes (and which probably is also true for a fair number of other chronic illnesses):
When your best blood-drawing vein starts getting enough scar tissue to make it hard for the lab tech to draw blood. This especially sucks when the corresponding vein on your other arm is in a weird position for drawing blood.
Naturally I have an endo appointment after I experience a half week of blood sugar spiking.
Not cool, my body, not cool.
Well, here’s hoping my HbA1c is not higher than last time’s.

How does that work?
The only ED I have is the one where I put food in my mouth too much, and then having to take a shit load of insulin to cover it.
It’s more common than you might think. Referring to diabetes itself as an eating disorder, even jokingly, is really very insensitive.
