New to forum, Type 1 that was diagnosed later in life, 30 yrs old, now 51. Hoping to learn a few things. I keep fairly tight control, but could always do better.

Welcome to the Forum!

I am Type 1.5 and insulin dependent myself. Take a look at carb counting, it works very well for me.

Read through the first three threads in the Type 2 Section, when you get a chance, if you have not already done so. These threads will most-likely help you a lot. Self education is one of the keys to successful management of your diabetes, along with a healthy / sensible diet and exercise. Basically, diabetes requires a life-style change for the better. Good luck with your control and management.
