[QUOTE="Fenn, post: 2337240, member: 474433"] Hi, when you say you are struggling, do you mean you are having hypos or the insulin is not working? I would say you are in a dont care home if you are not being fed healthy meals. Or worse, someone is buying you foods to binge on that completey reverse the effects of the insulin, you've said family, maybe you could ask your family to research the subject, perhaps spend some time here? If its that the insulin isnt working? Well... it is working, you just either need to give it less to do or take more, in my opinion, if you are binge eating, 10u aint going to do anything, I would work on the eating, not the insulin, thats the easy part. I found that eating sweet/carby food was a habit, the less you eat, the less you care about them, its very hard even when your not restricted and can walk around the supermarket for hours on end, reading labels, I cannot begin to imagine how tough this will be for you but its the only way I know of. It comes down to diabetes being horrible but thats no helpful, if you need help, you need your helpers to know how. I hope this isnt too harsh, I havent walked a single step in your shoes so have no idea, I wish you the very best. [/QUOTE]
