I don't have injections, I have a pump (accu-check spirit combo). But the amount of units a day for me is around 23. :) . My blood tests are ussaly along the lines of 5-11. Although every few days i'll go ino the 20s

Great Idear!
Although at first the needles look HUGE, they rarely hurt. Also your mum wont have to get up in the night because of basel ( they will tell you this at hospital). Of ccourse if you feel high/low you will have to do a BG level test.

Hi,

I thought I'd just introduce myself - I am Lovelylivpet's mum. Just keeping an eye on my daughter's online activities, which will probably embarrass her, but there you go :lol: !

Hi I'm Megan I'm also 11 years old and my HBA1C is 7.9 we sound like we are In a similar situation I'd love to chat


Hi Megan,
Good HB1C, mines high at 8.5 but planning to get it down :) . Are your parents (or you) strict about diabetes. Stuff like what you eat or do you just sort of get on with it?
