Well that sucks.

Tell me about it mate, gonna miss a good gob full of Haribo’s when they do the rounds ?

Soz to hear that sir, my 24yr old daughter has T1, diagnosed two years ago...

Not much fun, watching what you eat, pasta is a carb that fucks up your levels for the next day & the nightly lantus shot etc...

She was hoping she might be mody than T1 but apparently not

(instead she's just fucking moody at times

well think anybody wouldn't be delighted to find they're diabetic)

PITA, but can lead a normal life - just gotta take more care of yourself, eat, exercise etc... jelly babies/orange juice to hand etc...

At least you know now & might explain why you was always tired/thirsty or other symptons you may have had for a while

Best wishes in you learning to manage your levels & adjusting your life a little so this condition doesn't hold you back

ATB btw

Thanks SD

I guess that years in the motor trade making me not eat breakfast or lunch for the last 15 years, and going home dizzy and light headed wasn’t just hunger ?

My thirst was unquenchable ( is that a word) and obviously it all has to come out again, so was up 4-5 times a night for a wee.

Since my diagnosis on Friday, I have managed to get some decent sleep for a change! Waiting to get blood results tomorrow at hospital, and my first prescription which by the sound of it I need a fucking transit van to collect due to the amount of “supplies” they have prescribed ?

As you say, really time to concentrate on what I eat and being regular with it time wise.

onwards and upwards

Orange juice & jelly babies are secured & stashed ??

Sorry to hear.

At least now you'll feel better with treatment.

Its a PITA but can be managed much better nowadays.

Hopefully there will be a breakthrough in medical research.
