@jaylat1d: Why can't TV shows get diabetes right? 😭 still love this show though #type1diabetes

💗 Eli / Fay 💗 :

The “I haven’t been taking insulin” and then apparently being very low is taking me out, how can they be so wrong 😭

Rachelle :

saw a movie where they used an epipen as insulin 😭😭😭

liamm20022 :

you can have ketones while being hypo, especially if you aren't taking insulin. starvation ketones happen very easily

Mama KayKay :

Right because if I haven't been taking my insulin and checking my sugar my sugar is going to be high not low. it seems like every time someone has a blood sugar problem they just assume it's low.

Elodie :

omg and the babysitter club is so annoying

Oyaks :

I think Purple Hearts got it right

PottersTiger :

Not that deep

vampiresnacc :

such a pet peeve bc it's so easy to google 😭

kaiden :

they could quite literally Google the symptoms of hypoglycemia or the other symptoms this also annoys me I would also like it if they got it right because I feel like it would make the show or movie or interesting if things were more real but it's also funny sometimes

newSecret👸🏾🫰🏽🌺 :

Early can I get a like pls🤗

Katie✨🖤 | Booktok🥀 :

So frustrating 🫣 if she wasn’t taking her insulin she most likely have diabetic ketoacidosis as she wouldn’t even have her background insulin in her system and be hospitalised 😅

fugue state :

Script defo not written by a T1. Not to mention the stigma reinforcement

faisalmarzouq0 :

They don’t care about details

🧚‍♀️ay :

Most old people have type 2 diabetes and it’s very very different from type one and type two you can’t eat whatever you do because it is reversible but only by ear on a strict diet. Yes, a lot of them have to start some sort of medication to help but you still can’t really eat what you want when you have t2d

Jessica :

how about when you go to the ER and nurses have no idea what they are doing 🤯 it's scary

love :

I can't remember which show but there is one where they say the character needs more insulin when they are going too low 😂😂😭😭

ꫂ᭪݁ F𝖆𝖗𝖆𝜗𝜚 ꫂ᭪݁ :

it annoys me when people don't get it right 😒

Genitalwarts :

Okay for the first part, i can understand why they would give her sugar bc shes not taking her insulin she must be exhausted but sugar water aint gonna help her 😭

FunDanceKid :

Patty :

mad isn't it when TV shows get it all so wrong 🤦🏻‍♀️

J :

Plus it’s probably type two.. in which case it’s rare she would go that low!
