I have always had my own monitor, I just think it gives you more confidence to know exactly how you stand., it was given to me by the hospital when I was first diagnosed? If you start to feel bit strange or light headed you can check your readings, especially if you drive. However I live in...

Hi Molly I ihave replied to you again but somehow I put it on the end of your last post. I hope you are able to read it. !! x

I have no answers for you Molly, pretty much has already been said. How about your health though, you sound so down, perhaps a visit to doctor about your feelings and emotions would help you in some way. Him staying in bed most of the day sounds like he may be depressed, but you need to look...

As a person who has difficulty with Diabetes I found the information interesting. Shouldnt we just be saying "thanks for that" instead of putting unhelpful comments. Not everyone deals with diabetes in the correct way. Yes there are people with far worse problems than Diabetes, my daughter...
