[QUOTE="hjm1986, post: 2182740, member: 499305"] Hi I did DAFNE approx 6 years ago when I was 26? It was a week long course Mon - Fri 9am - 5pm and to be fair I thought it was pretty useless. However, I say this as the info learned on DAFNE was the same info I had been taught as a child with regards to carb counting and “Exchanges” or CP’s (Carbohydrate Portions). It was literally the exact same thing rehashed. So not really anything I specifically needed to know. I did this with a view to getting the insulin pump and here I am 6 years later with no pump - injections and metformin still. I do now have Libre though and L-O-V-E it! It has completely revolutionised my diabetes. It would still be nice to have a pump / Dex Comm, but June next year I begin the process of attempting a successful pregnancy should my HBA1c levels remain good enough. I would consider asking my diabetes care team to consider me for a pump should I have any severe set backs prior to my pregnancy. [/QUOTE]
