[QUOTE="Ladybirdy75, post: 885315, member: 71000"] Thank you AndBreathe, certainly makes for interesting reading. From the pointers you took from Deakins book i hit every one of them and really, when you think about it, although i have to externally administer my insulin if i am one of these unlucky people whose body struggles to utilise insulin then why wouldn't i end up having problems such as Type 2? There's not that many of us out there (T1's with T2 on top) but there is a few of us. Just as with obesity, it doesn't necessarily mean you will end up with T2, fit and lean people end up with T2 too so it makes sense to me that there would be T1's who end up with insulin resistance. It's all about education for me now on the subject and lots of fiddling with my pump. I have to say that i was pretty much amazed at how low my blood sugars were yesterday, i had 4 hypos. Will se what today brings then start making some necessary adjustments. I've also just bought that book off Amazon. Thank you for your help AndBreathe, very much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
