Good on you. I know it's not easy to do.

I have diabeties too.
Just getting past a low bsl myself. Eyes are still blurry. Ate a spoonful of honey,will be ok in a few minutes.

I manage the hell out of my diabeties. My last a1c was 5.12.

I felt like I had to change so much it was overwhelming when I got diagnosed. My cat saved my life.

I was in the hospital for a few weeks as they tried to get my bsl down to reasonable level.
I was given insulin.

But now meds do the job. Don't need insulin now.
