Lightbulb New to GB and glad to have found it!

Hi everyone!

I'm a Type 1 going on 31 years now. I credit a lot of how I care of myself in being a research participant in the DCCT/EDIC study for the last 27 years. Before then, I was taking 1 shot of NPH in the morning, and not really caring for myself at all. It didn't help that my Dr. at that time just basically filled my RX and said he'd see me in 6 months. Fast forward to today - I closely monitor my blood sugar levels throughout the day, and take action right away to make any necesary adjustments. My doctor of the last 20 years likes to say I'm the Captain and he's just the navigator in my diabetes health. I'm happy to say that I do not have any complications from diabetes, and with continued tight control of blood sugars, I hope I never will. The study has proven time and again that tight control produces the best results overall.

I never thought about an app for blood glucose monitoring, so when I found this one, quite by mistake, I felt I'd hit the jackpot! One place to post blood sugars, food and exercise - all on your phone. How easy is that?

I wish everyone here the best in their quest for better management in their diabetes health and hope to post replies for some of the discussions in the forum in the near future.
