I've had really bad control for about fourteen years now, mostly constantly high blood sugar. I was diagnosed with type 1 at five years old and had really good control for the first 5 years and then I started messing it up. I was missing injections and stopped doing blood tests completely, it got so bad that I would do a test and the level's could be around 40 or even would say 'HI' because the machine couldn't read that high. By that time I was so used to it that I didn't feel ill. Now in the passed few years I've been trying and have kind of succeeded in improving control - I have been put on the DAFNE course which has helped slightly.
The problem is that now I'm really trying but I can't get control back. I wake up every morning with high blood sugars and just lately I've started waking up with incredibly dry eye's, it hurts to open them. My whole body aches in patches, twinges in my arms, legs etc and I've been having chest pains for about a year now. I'm 24 and I feel like a very old man, I feel like I'm dying.
I know this sounds incredibly dramatic and a long complaint but I'm lost for what to do, just want some advice please... if it helps knowing what treatment it's Novorapid and Lantus
