    Type 1: Help needed for my diabetic boyfriend!!

    I will tag @Juicyj for you. I have Type 2 and so may not be of as much help as someone with Type 1 might be. I am from the USA and we use a different measuring system here but I think mine have been that high before I was put on insulin. Does your boyfriend take insulin?
