[QUOTE="becca59, post: 2526998, member: 264425"] [USER=557245]@david4503[/USER] Times and technology move on and with it a better understanding of diabetes management. I myself have always been on a carb counting and insulin ratio routine. However, I remember my brother back in the day on fixed doses and a balanced diet. It may have been done slightly differently to the US. He is now on carb counting, a pump and Dexcom with the best management he has ever had. The question has to be, do you have a good HBA1C and daily TIR from a CGM? If you do then you have cracked it and stay where you are. If not, consider that the more modern way may be better. [/QUOTE]
