I had diabetes type 1 since I was 8years old. Then a few years back i went into a hypoglycemia (low blood sugar coma) and since then I just can't seem to keep my blood sugar at the preferable level. My blood sugar is on average between 9 and 17. Does anyone knows why its like that? I've seen a dozen of doctors and diabetic specialists and they all tell me I should increase my insulin intake, but as soon as I increase it my blood sugar goes to low.

I am from the USA, so I am sure that the way you measure everything there is different than the way they do there. Sorry to hear you are having so many problems with your Diabetes and numbers. It can be quite frustrating when they are like this. I would try seeing a Diabetic specialist who can maybe find out what is really going on for you, and help you from there.
