[QUOTE="ishjohno, post: 240042, member: 31571"] Hi I think from reading your questions that you would be great for a DAFNE course. You seem to have a good understanding of the basic BG knowledge, your HbA1c of 6% is maybe a little low, my last HbA1c was 6.2% and I was advised that it was too low. Do you have good hypo awareness? Your profile says your are on Humulin, you probably need to ask your diabetic team how soon you can test your BG after eating as this insulin acts a little bit differently from the ones I know about. Your quoted "BG between 4 and 7" is correct :) you have obviously achieved this BUT the 2 hypos a week is what your diabetic team is worried about. Do you drive? Do you test your BG before you drive? Ask if your area has a DAFNE course, I believe that you would be a good candidate for it. [/QUOTE]
