What you don't say is if your friend is on insulin and if she counts the carbs in her meals to ensure she is taking the correct doses. If she is, and monitoring her diet than she should be able to control her numbers much of the time. There is no permanent cure for diabetes but the correct use of insulin is the way to keep it under control.
