[QUOTE="mrspuddleduck, post: 996990"] To be honest its complicated for me. Because I have brittle diabetes my blood sugars are hard to control anyway and the steroids just make it worse! I'm currently on a fixed dose long/short acting insulin rather than bolusing which so far has been the most effective. But its far from perfect! I spent an awful year trying to reduce the steroids but only managed to reduce by 2mgs when the docs decided enough was enough and deemed me steroid dependant! Sadly I don't think I have any real strategies, I do however pat myself on the back and do a little dance round the room if I ever get my blood sugars below 10 in the day and I don't hypo at night!!!:D Sue xx [/QUOTE]
