me im usually range from the 3' all the way to the 16's
it all depends what i do that day i was on the diet for about 5 years but thats because they didnt have the fast aciting inselin but yeah it takes time to get use to the doctors always say to get lots of exercise it will bring your blood sugars down greatfully and you should feel alot better

I'm a type one Diabetic, have been since March '88.
dragon boi>>>Are you on Humalog? I'm on Humulin NPH and Humalog. I went on the Humalog when I was 12...apparently like RIGHT when it came out. It's very frustrating growing along with the new treatments, but I'm glad I didn't get it before insulin was around, otherwise you'd be dead in a year. Getting insulin-dependent Diabetes used to be a death sentence.
