[QUOTE="nuun, post: 641300, member: 129867"] Have just completed a five day DAFNE course and feel that I, personally, benefitted from attending. My HbA1c was 'out if it's harness' and as the years have progressed, problems such as Graves (thyroid disease) are beginning to introduce themselves. In an attempt to delay further problems, I agreed to the course but not hopeful of learning much after having the dreaded 'D' for 37yrs. I now feel more confident in the administration of correction doses and counting carb portions appropriately. Have added an extra Lantus jab to control highs early eve and it seems to suit me. The DAFNE nurses seemed to think I would be a suitable candidate for an insulin pump but I'm far from keen. If what I have learned is a benefit, I'll be happy. The DAFNE course isn't for everyone obviously. We are all uniquely individual. I was lucky to have a superb and understanding team and glad I attended. [/QUOTE]
