[QUOTE="buckmr2, post: 1925740, member: 39701"] I've had T1 for around 46 years and couldn't have cared less about my control for decades. I reached 23st ate and drank what I liked when I liked ending up having to have Roux en Y bariatric surgery to lose 10 st. Control far more difficult since losing weight as more sensitive to insulin. My leg swelled (see pics below) and the calf split with the swelling.This changed the way I managed my diabetes even though the swelling turned out not to be related to my diabetes. I've had so much retina laser there is no where left to laser due to scar tissue followed by a long spell of eye injections. Since changing my habits I've had no eye injections for a few years and luckily no other complications. I have just finished my Libre trial and have been allowed to keep it.Great for telling you you're going low before you feel it Get the Libre. Doing a DAFNE course in a few weeks. Get yourself sorted and you're only kidding yourself by not telling your diabetic team the truth. Good luck[IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181120/937e885e7b79d669487175c37401788c.jpg[/IMG][IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181120/ebf72aaf5cff40357c34fa0f2c64f281.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
