You know how some people have that 'going to work naked' nightmare... my fear is going hypo at the doctors lol. You lived my nightmare!!

I think it only worries me because I know they think I'm obsessed. They don't understand me testing so often and seem to think my steady 6.2 A1c is a little low (and here's me aiming for 6 or lower). But only *I* know my body and my style... so I carry on the way I am and nod and smile at them :p

Anyhoo, I reckon you do whatever suits YOU. We all have our own style of diabetes, our own version of control which fits into our families / jobs / lifestyle.

Do you think it takes over your life? I wondered about this myself a while back so I took a break from forums and slackened control off just a tad. I felt gross! Life was getting messy. I thought it would be nice if I didn't have to worry about D so much - but I ended up worrying more because I wasn't testing as much, was hitting more lows & highs, and it became this mysterious mess of an illness (Yeh, I actually felt like a sick person) instead of just something I worked on a little bit each day.

Do what works for you. Sing along with Frank Sinatra... I did it myyyyyyyyy wayyyy
