[QUOTE="SilverAndEbony, post: 44804, member: 7578"] Surely the advice given to type 2 diabetics be different to that given to type 1s? Plus a difference based on how long you've been diagnosed? Plus how you are trying to control your BG levels? Plus how well controlled you are? I think advice to a well controlled type diabetic using diet and exercise alone to control their BG levels should be different to that given to Type 1s. Or am I mad? I've never had a hypo, and controlled by diet, exercise and metformin. I do not see the point of ME testing loads of times a day. I don't pretend to understand anything at all about living with Type 1, but I think that my 2 tests a week would be TOTALLY insane for type 1s. I ask be cause it seems that that difference is being missed in some of the replys to the original post. I'm not talking about testing lots of times to see how your body reacts to different types of food. I'm talking about after you've done your experiments. [/QUOTE]
