[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1155971, member: 53162"] Good morning Josephine, I personally think for newbies it's a system for them to work towards, as a type 1 diabetic and knowing my body as well as I do I have developed my own system which works perfect for me. I can sometimes feel a hypo coming on at 4.2 as it's the speed of which I can sense my bg dropping so at this point would eat 10g of carb, I also eat 10g of carb from 3.6 upwards, lower than 3.6 and its 3 jelly babies but I then wait 10 mins retest and retreat again with jelly babies if still low. DAFNE is great for empowering people to manage better but they are guidelines ;) [/QUOTE]
