I dnot think anyone can understand that unless they've experienced it. My tips are to test your blood sugar lots and lots, and put hypo treatments in every room. I also keep a glucose meter upstairs and another downstairs, just to make things a little easier.When I was diagnosed, I felt very alone too, and angry as well as upset. It took me some months to get my head round the whole thing. I wish this forum had been around then!I have a pump and I do find it helps enormously. It's definitely worth asking about. You could also look round the Insulin Pump section here.</blockquote>
