[QUOTE="artichoke1, post: 1779581, member: 436389"] I've been reading all the posts on inexplicably high and anomalous blood sugar readings and it occurs to me that very little has actually happened in diabetes therapy over all these years. Because diabetics treat themselves (with advice from medics of course) it is ultimately the diabetic who bears the responsibility for diabetic control. I have been diabetic for 43 years now and am only too aware of the subliminal message given by DSN's etc that it really is my fault that my BS is high. The professionals I come into contact with are simply passing on instructions which have been given to them - and really they can do no more than expect that they 'work'. Surely it's about time that a cure was found for Type 1 diabetes and then made available to all those who have the condition. Obviously people were grateful for insulin in the 50's but in the modern world we should be expecting a great deal better. [/QUOTE]
