[QUOTE="therower, post: 1471913, member: 47983"] Hi [USER=401781]@gavin86[/USER] . All my answers are on a personal level from my perspective. Q1. Low BS levels vary from person to person. As an individual you may go as low as -3 and still be able to self treat, yet the next day with the same BS level you could come around in the back of an ambulance. There are far to many factors to be able to give a definitive answer. Q2. You should be able to achieve whatever long term BS level you desire. Like everything in life, the more you give, the more you get. Personally I'm "good" 90% of the time and my BS levels stay exactly where I want them. Q3. Again not an easy one, it's not how high you go, but how long you stay there. Going 15+ twice a week wouldn't be a concern to me. Being at 10 for 6 days a week would be far more worrying. Q4. I've been T1 27yrs with no complications other than slight retinopathy in left eye. Others have had T1 far longer and are doing just fine. As a footnote. Diabetes,should,when controlled make you a better, healthier person. [/QUOTE]
