    A year ago I was 7.7, Doc was not happy.
    6 months ago I was 7.1, doc was happier as I was going down.
    I retired then and spent time doing things around the house.
    As I said I ride 45 minutes every morning now (12km). Play golf one day a week with a mate.

    Over the last 7 weeks I've had a hypo (low) once a week.
    And just before seeing endo I had 3 in 3 days, usually at 11pm.

    Just got latest result 8.7.
    Doc says 60% of people go to insulin within 10 years.

    I better get a prescription for depression as well now????

    Still not sure what I'll do next.

    I am sorry to hear your struggling. Yes I believe I'll eventually go downhill, it's possibly the most depressing thing about diabetes.

    Still, cheer up, something else is likely to kill you first

    I remember when I was 21 I counted up the people I'd known who died unnatural deaths over the previous 3 years. I'd averaged one a month. I've been expecting to kick off any minute ever since. Always slightly surprised when I wake up each morning.

    Good luck!
