Welcome to TuDiabetes! Check out some of the groups -- it's a great way to get to know the community.
Janie, I guess easier is a relative term. All of us go through bouts where we get fed up with this "condition". That is what makes this website so wonderful. First, you can vent and second, we all understand what you are going through.
As for me, I fought D for over 7 years trying to get meds that would work and keep me stable. One problem was that I was controlling way to tight. I felt the lower my BG the better. I actually had A1c numbers in the 4.3 range. Had a lot of lows. Finally got an endo who would work with me and now my A1c is normally around 5.1. Unless I mess up I am normally pretty stable. But there are still times when my sugars just go nuts and that gets frustrating.
But you just remember that YOU CAN DO IT!!
This is a great place to share, to learn, and to grow...all the while meeting new people world wide, and making friends ♥
