[QUOTE="TURTLE, post: 2237961, member: 170803"] Hi Been diabetic T1 since 1980...40yrs now and over that period I have done quite a few courses and trials.... I did a 12 month University trial which monitored everything you did during your waking hours, food exercise intense monitoring then a twice a week session at Sheffield university under a relaxation situation ( laid down with eyes closed virtually falling asleep) blood tests before and after then some stressful tests games or puzzles etc with bloods done before and after to monitor stress to see how it effects glucose levels. Trialed one of the early pumps back in the 80s (didn't get on with that very well at all). Did the Dafne course at Jenny O'Neil diabetic centre in Derby about 97/98 and found that to be a huge help to learn about the flexibility of carb counting and Insulin doses to match certain situation....a great course and highly recommended. I am currently on the Freestyle Libre 6 month trial (2 months in) and have to say this piece of kit is a real game changer in diabetes control and seen my HBA1C much improved dropping from 8.5 to 6.7 in 2 months you really feel in total control with this sensor fitted.
