hey has anyone here got brittle diabetes type 1 iv been reading about it symptoms and everything sound like the problems im having with my diabetes. just woundering does anyone have brittle diabetes and have they managed to get it undercontrol?.
 
A friend of mine not on this forum was diagnosed as having brittle diabetes he is type 1 and on a pump. He was advised by the hospital diabetic clinic consultant to decrease his insulin dosage so that he runs ( my words ) between 5 and 8. Previously he was told by a GP diabetic nurse that he should run between 2 and 4. Since decreasing his insulin he has had no hypo's and his body is now showing warning signs when his blood sugars are running low. Please check with a serious diabetic doctor about your condition do not adjust your dosage based on what I have written.
