You and your daughter are still at the beginning of the journey.What are we calling constantly high?Ultimate control of diabetes starts with basal doses being as good as possible. Long term, poor control can lead to complications but we are talking years of very bad control here.Focus on getting the basics right at the moment, if you do that I doubt your daughter will have to many problems going forward.Diabetes thrives on negativity, don't let negativity become part of your daughters diabetic life. As much as I feel the use of a libre is essential it can at times provide to much information. Catch 22 at times. Life isn't solely about meter readings, you have to live by that general feeling for life as well.27 yrs average HbA1C over those years maybe 7.5, I can't be sure, but it's definitely not in the 6's.Complications???????? Well some ( a lot ) say I'm a miserable old sod, going bold, slight background retinopathy in left eye which appears to come and go on a yearly basis. Apart from that I'm doing fine.</blockquote>
