[QUOTE="the_anticarb, post: 409131, member: 16982"] I was a bit surprised at the two injections per day thing - sounds a bit old school - surely if she is on basal bolus she will be on at least one of basal (poss 2) and then 3 of bolus (poss more depending on if she injects for snacks). It always suprises me how non diabetics seem to focus on the injection side of things being the most horrible aspect to diabetes, injections are the least of my worries it's all the hypos/weight gain/constant balancing/threat of complications that does my head in. Good luck to Teresa, hopefully this will make the public realise that not all diabetics are fat/stupid/lazy/brought it upon themselves and we can but dream that she will somehow influence NHS policy. Although she probably doesn't want to become the poster girl for diabetes, and sounds like she just wants to get on with her life as before and not make too big a deal of it. [/QUOTE]
