[QUOTE="saruhbeau, post: 1488205, member: 308335"] Thank you! What has really helped me is using dexcom. And previous to dexcom I used libre. I only started using them a couple of months ago. Even if you can't afford to use it full time, you can ask your dsn or hospital to have a libre trial. If they don't do that you could just buy one libre sensor (£48) if you have an android phone. I really recommend dexcom. I know how hard it is to get your a1c down. Dexcom and libre have shown me what is going on between finger pricks. It isnt easy and I am doing up to 10 injections a day. My hypos have reduced though and most importantly I am not high every day. Before I yoyo'd from 2-30 on a regular basis. Now I rarely go above 13 and when I do go above 10, I know straight away and do a correction so I am down within an hour. I feel much better physically. Good luck :) [/QUOTE]
