It happens because the amount of insulin your pancreas produces declines to the point where your blood sugar goes up and you have to inject more of the stuff. While your pancreas still produces some insulin, you are said to be in the "honeymoon stage". This will end too and you will become totally dependent on injected insulin. Normally, endocrinologists put new T1s straight onto insulin. The ssoner you do this, the longer the honeymoon lasts.
