Can anyone tell me what this is in a nutshell please?
I'm using a pump (accu-chek combo) and think my swings from lo to high have reduced somewhat but I keep hearing about SD. My a1c is always fine but I've always felt this is due to too many hypos (in the quest for better levels). After 13 years of being t1 I have background retinopathy & a few other 'issues' starting to appear (one of them being buzzing tingling feet since the start of year - driving me nuts). The dsn's & consultants I've seen always say I'm well controlled but I fear the a1c's have been misleading.
So...if I can figure out my SD & work on reducing it I'm presuming this will help keep things more even?
If anyone knows what I'm on about I'd love to know more!
