Hi guys I have my review on Monday. It the first one ive been too for nearly 4 years and I cant remember what to take with me?

also Im going to be approaching the doctor about going back on to twice a day injections but im unsure as to what to do if he refuses to let me go back to it ?

I can handle doing 4 a day anymore Im running out of sites and its burning when the insulin goes in :( Im also sick of having to inject anytime i want to eat, its causing me to much hassle.

If anyone has any advice it will be gratefully appreciated :d xx

What are you readings like at the mo? I know its frustrating to inject whenever you eat, but thats diabetes...

About the insulin burning... That's not normal, and something you should definatley bring up.

Good luck tomorrow :)

The paisn fairly recent at least two weeks, the highs have been since i started around 10 weeks ago. Il admit i had a good few highs while doing two injections bt these were all down to me being naughy and eating things i shouldnt havce xx

But what are you doing now that could be causing these hypos?

Two injections a day only offer a half decent solution if you're a routine kind of person. I'd personally try and figure what's gone wrong now?

Im very rarely having hypos more hypers sorry if i was unclear. Nothing has changed except. Im now eating three meals aday rather than two. I dont feel like i can do it any more its completely getting on top of me and driving me nuts. I didnt used to eat a proper lunch just normally a snack between breakfast and tea this has never really been a problem except now i cant stand having to eat if im not hungry just so i can inject, or waiting till i am hungry then having to have tea at a reallt late time . Thanks for answering

Well today was a complete waste of time. I got bloods done then met the doctor who didnt even introduce himself. He asked me three questions whats were my ratios, wat insulin i was taking and did i know the dn's in the hospital after this i was then told to go make an appointment for the monday club in one years time.
I am completely peed off abt it he didnt even bother to ask how long ive been diabetic or what my sugars etc have been. i now need to make an app with the dn's to tell them im no longer interested in doing 4 times aday and also to log a huge complaint abt the doctor :(

That's rubbish, tho I think we've all had it.

You got a log of the carbs you've eaten and what insulin you've been taking? What were your bloods like today?
