I have been diagnosed since haloween 2007...
My diabetes (1) has NEVER been under control/hba1c lowest was 11
my doctors won't listen...
the diabetic nurses won't listen...
i find it so hard to lose weight going from 12st before diagnosis to 15.5 stone
I am so close to saying blow it and not take anything
i am on nova rapid, lantus 20/20 split, & 2g metformin (slow release)
I ate last night a small curry 2x poppadoms at 9pm giving myself 20 units of nova rapid. tested before food 17
tested at midnight 18.2 .... gave myself a 20 unit correction!!!!!! plus 20 lantus
woke up to 17.6 at 10am
had 2xbrown bread, 1/2 can heinz beans.
tested at 12 and I'm 18.6 so gave myself another 30 units to correct !!!
this is so out of control, i have given myself 70 units of lantus in 12 hours for beans on toast.
The doctors on my review just say i need to work harder at it for the last 3 years... i have now refused to go because they are NOT HELPING at all. and just make me feel rubbish.
Is someone ele experienced what is happening to me? I am pretty much in tears daily cause I'm trying so hard and completely failing.
Please help me ;-( Please
