After much thought,I have decided to leave the forum and did not want to go without saying thank you to those who have supported me and helped me through a a very trying couple of years.
I'd like to say special thanks to Fergus who first made me aware what cutting the carbs could do.
I have cut the carbs considerably and now often have readings in the 4's and 5's and though I went on a bit of a roller-coaster testing this approach out, I am now utterly convinced that this IS the way to go and if,in time, I find moderate carbs. are too high to attain good levels, I shall lower them, rather than up the insulin. I know I'll never be off the insulin but it is not my intention to get into a cycle of eating more and upping insulin to silly levels.
There are many others on this forum whose advice has helped me no end....to name but a few.....iHs, SarahQ, sugarless sue, Dennis and the wonderfully knowledgeable diabeticgeek. I thank you all.
Keep smiling everyone.
Kindest regards,
Chocoholic.
