Absolutely agree that counseling should be offered by the diabetes team. I was, at age 15, but not again after that although i changed to adult clinic and struggled hellish with my diabetes. In retrospect I wish as a young adult I'd have asked my diabetes team for that sort of help. All i can...

Hi, I'm not sure I can help but I'll share what I've done and heard throughout the years... firstly exercise effects people differently, some people go high after exercise, I always go low. Also, exercise can have the effect of making you go low only a few hours later. Re lantus, my...
