[QUOTE="DunePlodder, post: 668256, member: 25119"] 20 years. No I didn't get it right from the start. Like Noblehead I took the insulin I was advised to take but I had very little useful education from hospitals and doctors. My readings were pretty awful but I had little idea of what to do. It was probably 7 or 8 years before I really started to work at it. Frankly it was seeing the problems my sister had (she was 9 years older than me) which gave me the kick up the backside that I needed. By then the internet had got going & I found some wonderful information & later on, forums like this. I also did the online BDEC carb counting course which was invaluable. ([url]http://www.bdec-e-learning.com/[/url]) Still a lot to learn though. [/QUOTE]
