[QUOTE="daisy1, post: 194980, member: 25759"] Hi Levermire and welcome to the forum :) I'm sorry to hear about the complications you have had from your 18 years of diabetes. Were you ever told the best way to manage it or did the HCP just tell you to eat lots of starchy carbs? Diabetes can do a lot of damage as you say and it's important to try to minimise this. It's not too late for you to turn things around and try to avoid future complications. Have a read of this basic information written by the former Monitors for new members. I know you are not newly diagnosed but I think you might find this information helpful to get good control of your diabetes. A lot of us have benefitted from this advice. The diet and testing advice is particularly important and if you follow these you might find things improve or at least lessen the progression of complications. [/QUOTE]
