Yeah, , it sounds like you're in the midst of a pretty rough time. But

don't quit now, whatever you do! One day, you'll see that pricking your finger

and doing a test is a routine that while sometimes goes wrong, will " feel " more

natural. And keep in mind, consistency is another very important rule of thumb.

Keep posting all your struggles and your successes. You've got a lot of people

rooting for you!
