[QUOTE="wildtoast, post: 1832721, member: 468865"] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=#000000][USER=181361]@helensaramay[/USER] thanks for your insight! I do carb count already and even have my ratios down pretty good (1:8 breakfast, 1:15 dinner and tea) - I came into all this from a fairly informed position to start with..All the DSNs I've seen - knowing this - were still adamant I'd get a lot out of DAFNE even though it would be more fine tuning than a total education, but it sounds like maybe not. I gather they teach you about correction doses? I've only been told not to correct for a hyper after a hypo from eating the fridge, but from the forum it seems like you're maybe only supposed to correct at your next meal time... I've been correcting as and when I felt I needed to. I get where you're coming from about meeting other people though... at my Libre education session a lot of people were very concerned at how it only shows HIGH after a reading of about 27 and mentioned how they are often at that level and won't know the difference between 27 and 30 odd, I was privately slightly horrified! My numbers have never been that bad but I assume I still have some native insulin kicking around at only 5 months in. Thanks for the link to the course, I'll check it out. [/COLOR][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
