Many thanks letitia
 
Sorry to hear you are having such a difficult time @letitialangley1987 :(

Which insulin(s) are you using? And have you been given advice about how to balance your total carbohydrate intake with your insulin doses?

Sometimes this can involve having a fixed ‘allowance’ for total carb content of different meals. Other times it’s a question of adjusting your meal dose each time you eat (if you take a separate mealtime insulin).

Hope you can get things a bit more settled so that your surgery can go ahead and you feel much better.
