A member asked:
I would like to know the effect of type 1 diabetes on sleep, please thank you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
DM1: Type 1 diabetes should have no effect on your sleep, nor your 24 hours a day. To make sure this works for you please carefully check your blood sugar regularly. If it is too low you need some glucose. If it is too high increase your dose the next time you give yourself insulin. If you are not yet using an insulin pump you should seriously consider purchasing one. They are each OK - your choice!
