JDRF are doing some pages to allow people to produce their diabetic statistics, how many blood tests they’ve done etc.

Being “an old diabetic”, mine is a little unconventional:

Item Per day Period Total
Insulin Injections 1 1 yr      365
Insulin Injections 2 8 yrs   5,840
Insulin Injections 4 14 yrs 20,440
Insulin Injections 6 0.75 yrs   1,643
Insulin Injections 4 1.5 yrs   2,190
Glucagon N/A N/A          12
Blood tests 6 37 81,030
Sensors N/A N/A        30
Urine tests 4 4 yrs   5,840
Insulin pump cannula 0.3 17 yrs   1,862

Which gives a grand total of:

  • Injections: 31,000 (round to nearest 1,000 to cover vaccines, etc)
  • Tests: 87,000 (not including sensors as this is a bit meaningless)
  • Cannulas: 1,900 (rounded to nearest hundred)
