Message: <blockquote data-quote="olster" data-source="post: 1761355" data-attributes="member: 455115">Ive been type 1 for about 6 months and 90% of the time i will check my BG (before meals and bed) and it will be within the 4-7 range (typically in the 5's and 6's).The other 10% accounts for the times ive been a bit unsure of the carb amount and not had enough insulin, i which case i find my BG at around a 10 (then i simply correct). And the other time i will find it slightly high (7-12) is when ive had a high carb meal and ive checked my BG 1-2hours after eating.Would this be bad control, enough to cause issues later in life? or am i doing okay?I try to eat around 20g-60g carbs a meal and i avoid all sugary food unless its a special occasion which ill do a longer pre bolus for.I often hear people say they dont control their BG well and would just like some clarification on what this means.</blockquote>
