Hi,
I am mum to Emma, 5 years old been type 1 for just over a year, (diagnosed world diabtes day 2007, how ironic) and just been for annual check up and her Hbca1 (write letters and numbers not sure about the order to paraphrase Eric Morecomb) and had gone up to 8, not earth shattering but it was 7.2 previously. How do you cope with worry about long term implications and I can't seem to get settled levels again, consultant upped her background by 1 unit (she was only on 3) which put her into hypo land so I reduced to 3.5 but can't get any 'control' at the moment.
Plus I find the 'never having a day off' very depressing, anyone got any good ideas?
