Hi!

Has anyone done the bertie online course?
If so, what are your thoughts?
How did it help you?
 
Hi @Tubzi, what are you looking at it to help with? It's basically a lighter version of DAFNE and goes through understanding insulins, working out ratios, carb counting, sick days, exercise, etc. It's an excellent course if you haven't done any of these things and it's learn at your own rate, so you don't have to do it all in one. you can come back to it.
 
I haven't ever done any courses. I learnt to carb count when i was diagnosed almost 10 years ago and have just been working it out by myself.
I'll give it a go and see what i can learn!
 
@Tubzi . Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Can't do any harm and you may learn something that will really help.:)
 
Hi Tubzi! Are you in U.K.? I'm sure the online BERTIE is great but the live classes were a hoot! For me it was more a refresher course but for the others who had been Type 1 for long times it was a massive help. I have to say getting together with others coping with the same daily grind is a huge help by itself!
