Cofee – lol, i like that line of suffering in the 9 days, although it does say you’re life comes first.. i’m sorry about your numbers and dx3 too, just hang in there, shabbos will be like normal and then there’s just 2/3 more days..
Zen3344 – are you knew here? Welcome (to this thread anyway!) Have you been following here for some time or only recently?
Were you ever in hospital with the ketones? It’s possible that some people purposely make themselves have ketones for the exact reason that you saw yourself (losing weight). Yes, it does mean you’re A1c goes high and you feel irritable. It’s very impressive how you have managed to get your A1c so far down and your life back in control, kudos!
