Hi all,
Am very new to this so please forgive me if i start to ramble!!
I am clemmie; I am 27 and have been a type 1 diabetic for 21 years. I have been very lucky and not suffered with any comlications, but over the years and combined with other health issues my control has gone haywire. Latest hba1c was 8.9 and rising and am now struggling with new ideas and ways of managing this condition that are very different to what I was taught all those years ago!!
My main query for now is whether anyone else has been fitted with a "cbgm" ??- its a permanent blood glucose monitor that is fitted to your abdomen fpr about 4 days to give about 300 readings.
Looking forward to picking up new ideas and getting to know others who can share similar stories.
Thanks all
