My name is Danny and I have had Type II diabetes for 12 years. Since September of 2009 I had been fighting very high blood sugars eventhough I was taking basal injections of insulin. I was tasked by my very good friend, and my Doctor (12/22/09), to get this under control as my condition had changed and I was now Type 1.5 with a HGbA1c of 11.3%. Some of you may know this condition as late blooming Type 1 or Latent Autoimmune Diabetes of Adults (LADA). I did all the research for this condition and wrote an Excel spreadsheet for calculating insulin requirements for injections, based primarily on current weight and carb intake for multiple daily injections (MDI) of the bolus dosage. I have used the GlucoseBuddy App along with several other Apps for weight loss, carb counting and exercise to lower my A1c's to 6.9% (03/29/2010) and I expect this percentage to be in the mid 5% range at my next office visit. With all of this information at my fingertips it appears that I have my diabetes in the best control, that I have seen, since I started this regimen. I thought that it was probably time for me to post this information here, since we basically all have the same condition.
