Yeah my phone should work that's how i'm getting a graph using the smartlog app it's basically a case of for years i have not checked my BG levels i'd just take 20 units of novorapid with every meal then 20 units of levemir when ever i went to sleep no set time. On the 2nd of this month i was admitted to hospital for 9 days i saw some thing's that made me open my eyes plus it was the 3rd time i had to go to hospital for dka it makes me feel worthless
Hey,
There's been a fair few of us come off the rails at some point.
No need to lose faith in yourself.
Slow & steady when tightening up the BG managment. Going at it like a "bull at a gate" can possibly cause damage?
Acclimatise, like decompression..
I learned the hard way. Got away with it for years, changed my ways overnight. Then wound up needing anti-VEGF jabs in the eye balls for a minor "diabetic" issue..
We live & learn. Trick is the longevity to carry on the "lesson."
