Living with Type 1 Diabetes

Here's an introduction to this new channel - so that you all know a little background information into how I was diagnosed with insulin dependent diabetes, and how I manage it everyday.

I hope to be posting lots of tasty recipes here, as well as discuss health issues and more about diabetic living.

You keep hanging there. Much support from one Diabetic to another.

hey, im 14 and got diagnosed about a 3 weeks ago, does this stop you from doing everyday things in life and how much would it affect you in later life?

[notjustapples]

@iiModZilla it only stops you if you allow it too! if you take good care of yourself, eat right and exercise well, then the affects should be pretty minimal i hope :)

Hi, been type 1 for 30 years now & have always wanted an insulin pump but the NHS wont give me one! haha After 30 years ive now signed up to a research program on type 1 diabetes at Ninewells hospital in Dundee & have just discovered that i have never had the anti body test which distinguishes type 1 from a type 2! Very little chance i will be type 2 but if it turn out i am...i might sue the NHS for misdiagnosing me all them years ago! haha

@actrapide that sounds really interesting! how's the program going for you?

Thanks, this helped a lot. My sister got diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes yesterday. She is only is 4th grade, and 9 years old. She is in the hospital waiting for her blood sugar level to stabilize so she can go home. I want to help her as much as I can. <3
