[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 282811, member: 11028"] Much like yourself and Josie I did this myself when I was younger for fear of going hypo amongst friends and work colleagues, you could say it was like a comfort blanket knowing that having high bg made you safe from danger and embarrassment.....if only I knew then what I know now! My tip would be to enroll on a type 1 education course such as DAFNE, here they'll teach you to estimate the carb value of your food and give the correct insulin to cover, courses like DAFNE have proven that they reduce the incidents of hypo's in patients and improves bg control overall, they also cover many other aspects of type 1 management such as basal insulin adjustment/testing, sick-day rules and exercise....to name a few.
