[QUOTE="gemma6549, post: 832733"] When I was first diagnosed I think I was still honeymooning so I found getting good control quite easy and was only on small doses. That stayed that way for a couple of years. I was on different insulin then. Once I needed higher doses I changed to the lantus and novo rapid. Once I was put forward for DAFNE I had to wait about a year to get on the course, but it really did change everything for me and my control has been great since. I found splitting my background and taking half in the morning and half at night worked best for me but you will need a bit of time to settle first before tweaking things. You will be fine, the information on insulin and carbs is really helpful, I didn't find out about injecting for carbs until I was 26!! :) x [/QUOTE]
