[QUOTE="Summermum, post: 178045, member: 32067"] It's great having this site to encourage me to tackle my diabetes in the way that I feel is right :D my husband and friends think I'm being a bit dramatic testing my blood glucose especially as the practice nurse told me not to. It seems a no brained at running blood sugars high must contribute to complications so therefore good control must reduce them. I'm lucky that I was able to get my bm test strips on prescription as I asked in a way that didn't really given an option to deny me! I was also lucky that I read the type 2diabetes first year before any other book as it's informative but never enduringly positive :) I started an "expert" diabetes book but have abandoned it as it was too depressing and full of blame. Being informed to take control is definitely the way forward. [/QUOTE]
