[QUOTE="Emj185, post: 1877742, member: 189280"] Hi KK Thanks for your message, it’s good to speak with people who understand where I’m coming from. Just find it so frustrating that I managed to get through all the hormonal/stressful teenager years and now I’m old enough to know better and the consequences of not looking after your diabetes, I seem to have lost the plot! It’s almost excusable through puberty and school, but I feel I should have it under control and have everything together now. My levels fluctuate quite a bit if I’m struggling to manage my diabetes, so I found knowing continuous levels with the Libre helpful. With my standard metre if I take 2x tests a day it’s good for me at the moment, whereas I spent years doing a minimum of 8 tests. My hypos tend to be early hours of the morning (4-5am) and occasionally breakfast time. Insulin wise I take Novorapid (4-8u) with my meals and then Tresiba (30u) at bedtime. Do you find low carbs helps you to manage your diabetes better? Emj X [/QUOTE]
