Hi everyone
Last year I bought a new iPhone 5 n it took some time b4 I found the Glucose Buddy n boy am I a happy camper.
Since about Dec 22,2014 I started logging my BG. I've been told many times over the years to keep track of you BG readings.
About 3 1/2 months ago, I suffered a stroke. My right side was affected to the point of being partially paralyzed.
Anyway, I'm still recovering and doing pretty well considering. I still sometimes slur my words and have trouble getting what words I want to say out.
I know this is long but plz be patient w me.
I was diagnosed w diabetes (type 1)n 1976. Now my body acts like a type 2 that needs a wee bit of insulin. I'm on Metformin n that works really good for me. I know a lot about diabetes but since my stroke, I have difficulty remembering what I should do sometimes.
I would like to get to know more diabetics and what is going on with them.

Kim
