Producing more without fully knowing how much more can be dangerous as heck, it seems to me.

It is. The natural regulating mechanism is also compromised, which is why we are all sticking our fingers several times a day to get a blood sample to measure. Which is painful, as well as expensive. Overdo the drugs or the insulin and you've got a risky situation, (you can faint, even die), which is why we all have some sort of sugar shot handy to pick us up if we get excessively low blood glucose. Being diabetic is a daily chore, no mistake.

My son has type 1 diabetes and a glucose monitoring system was a complete game-changer for helping him manage his blood sugar. You should take a look at them, if you haven't already.

Yes...I am type 2.
