I found big problems with DAFNE in regard to exercise because despite following the rules the best I could, often I'd go high (20+BG) after a work out, then aggressively drop when I corrected. This has made doing exercise extremely intimidating. I have had to resort to outside sources to help tackle understanding this problem (I have learnt a lot from a book called "Your Diabetes Science Experiment" by Ginger Vieira for example), which DAFNE does not even try to explain. This issue has been very challenging with my DSN team because they don't like that I'm not able to stick 100% to DAFNE. They don't have anything in place to tackle exercise effect on BGs phobia too. |
