[QUOTE="lulu54, post: 253542, member: 42221"] Diagnosed 21 years ago type 2 (treated with metformin and gliclazide). 4 years ago went onto levemir (22units per day) and novarapid as determined by guesstimate of carb content. Wouldn't say I've ever accepted but do have to learn to live and cope with it. After 4 years I am insisting that I attend the DAFNE course as my levels are still not acceptable under 8 but not the 6.5 supposed to be. Not much advice given if you have been diagnosed a long time but I suppose they assume you should know, hey I don't. Use the carbs and cal book OK but I need more help than that. Remember that this is your illness, if you are not happy make sure you get all the help you can. CBT etc for depression, and find out as much as you can to help yourself. Keep well and look on these forums and also those in the US and Australia they have good stuff too. [/QUOTE]
