What is the most useful tool for your DBTS management?

Let's participate, let's share our experiences !!!;) Everything is useful !!!

Handling tool ???Glucometer is essential to know what to eat and insulin to put.But today's glucometers are still a delay, the only thing they have changed is reading time, in small cases the size.

The brain and common sense

Insulin, carbohydrates and holy patience.

For me, the continuous glucose monitor, use the Dexcom and is what allows me to maintain control, with a lot of different!

The information, sometimes I think that more than we have new MCG tools, new insulins, bomb ... etc. Without the necessary formation for the management, all the game we could, and sometimes I miss those things is not taken out

My medical alert bitch, next to sport, food and insulin knowledge

@Gemater what reason you are, the problem is that lack of information and the obsolete in advances/tools, in diabetes they go hand in hand, unfortunately for those who suffer it.

@sigsauer what you comment, always, not only for diabetes.;)

Food, insulin, experience and knowledge of ours and others and paciennnnncia !!!!

Excellent!!A diabetic alert dog!!
I have a cat that has woken me up at a nocturnal hypo I do not know if it is coincidence but it happened.

I share with @gemater the "formation" by a lot of continuous monitor, flash, bomb and so on if you don't know the disease, such as eating and treating you, the best "little machine" you can have.

I see it every day in my work environment ... a lot of technology, you cannot imagine how much but useless lack of training.

Fer, completely agree with you.Since I use the continuous meter, I have adjusted the guidelines a lot.Before I did it at breakfast, 120. In food, 70-80.But if I did it at the time of the height, 200. I had been with the fixed Levemir guidelines for some time, and since I use the freestyle I have been able to adjust the doses.
A great invention!

For me the glucometer, without him I would not know what to do.If we add a better MCG.
