[QUOTE="urbanracer, post: 2089747, member: 140811"] I know it's easy to say, but stop worrying. It doesn't do your blood glucose levels any favours. I think many people just get worn out by diabetes management. I have periods when I do the bare minimum which for me, means testing before driving and little else. For myself, these periods end with a sudden 'Ok, you can't carry on like this' moment. I will then climb back into the saddle as the saying goes. Not sure what your 'healthy diet' consists of but I need the odd treat here. Your current insulin regime makes treats difficult and whilst some people stay on mixed insulin long term, it is common for most T1's to switch to Multiple Daily Injections (MDI) once you've been doing it for a while. As [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER] indicated, I was left on mixed insulin for over 3 years which seems a little unusual compared to the experiences of others. It makes it difficult to skip meals which is a pain if you have a busy lifestyle. It does get easier though, so hang in there. [/QUOTE]
