[QUOTE="In Response, post: 2491202, member: 527103"] [USER=553113]@Brookemurph[/USER] I recommend Googling something like "Libre graphs for people without diabetes" and you will see that everyone's blood sugars go up and down like a mountain range even when they have an organ almost entirely dedicated to managing it unlike those of us who have to inject insulin whilst living a full and active life. Rather than thinking about how to control your blood sugar even better, I recommend living your life. Talk to someone about your worries at your next hospital appointment but, with an insulin pump, I would be overjoyed to be 99% in range. That said, nearly 20 years after my diagnosis, eating what I want, exercising and travelling a lot whilst having a busy and sometimes stressful job, I have no complications from diabetes. You are doing an amazing job - be proud of yourself and remember you are [B]managing[/B] your diabetes, not controlling it. [/QUOTE]
