[QUOTE="lely, post: 688099, member: 45963"] M I too have had badly controlled diabetes for 7 years since diagnosis, thinking I could do it all on my own with the back up of family and friends. Unfortunately unless you are diabetic yourself it's hard for others to understand all that comes with it, no matter how close they are. Example my hubby bless him, very supportive in the whole, how's you day been, However I've recently done the carb counting and have gone back to basics. Reducing my daily intake of carbs, monitoring everything I eat and making taking my BG's habit.( which on way home from the carb count course the hubby texted me to tell me he's gonna do me steak for tea, bring home a bag of chips to go with it ). Anyway. First two weeks I was disheartened as I didn't seem to be making any difference week 3 and 4. Wow. BG's have been super. No more peaks and troughs. A more steady range with great morning readings. And it was about 3 months after I regularly started using this forum and reading everyone else's successs. Be good to yourself and go see your doc/DSN and make that change for yourself. [/QUOTE]
