New Type 1
 

I am 23 and just diagnosed with t1... In the e.r. My Bg was 659... In this first week my Bg has been running between 180-250.. Is it normal to take some time to adjust to the insulin and getting the carb counting down?? No worries just new to this.

Welcome to the Forum! :)

Keep counting the carbs, you are off to a good start. Just remember that your bolus insulin dosage accuracy depends on your accuracy with counting the carbs and it takes a while to get really good at it. Good luck with your control and management.

I am 25 and was diagnosed with type 1 about two weeks ago ... I was at about 460 with an A1c level of 14 when I found out... My levels have been bouncing between 70 to 199 and I have been told that it takes a while to get it more level and figure out the carb counting. Not sure how much that helps but just thought I'd share that... Good luck!
