    I was like that for years. My blood sugars were all over the place no matter what I did. I went to nutritionists, diabetes counselors, different endocrinologists, tried taking more shots to even the highs and lows, everything i could do and nothing worked. Eventually as I got older and technology got better I got an insulin pump.
    The pump changed everything for me. My A1c’s went from 12’s and 13’s to between 6 and 8. I lost weight. I was able to eat things that normally caused super high blood sugars without all the problems and highs. All around better control with a pump.
    You will need to see and endocrinologist to get the approval needed to get a pump. It took me several months to get approval from my insurance company also.
    There is tons of information on the internet about insulin pumps. It really is a life changing experience to any T1 diabetic. In your situation an insulin pump could really help.
