For example, are you carb counting and adjusting your insulin as you should? Have you done a basal test recently? Have you then checked your meal time ratios? Are you getting spikes - advance bolusing can reduce those enormously.Don't try to do everything at once. Go slowly and aim to improve things gradually. If you don't already I have it, I recommend the book Think Like A Pancreas, as it's brilliant for Type 1 <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
