Had mine aged 13 after my diagnosis and still diabetic 33 years later....
Interestingly the study was done in the US where they don't routinely give that vaccine. Looking forward to seeing the 2nd stage!
Yes I had the routine one as a child, around the time as I was diagnosed with T1 at 12
I think I’ve had it easy compared to many with T1, I’m now 58
I’ve never followed advise or a strict diet, just eaten what I want and adjusted insulin accordingly, without any serious issues. I’m fat / overweight with high blood pressure but then many people without diabetes at 58 are the same.
However over the last few years, despite going onto a Dexcom cgm, control is not so easy as it once was.
Which is why I will be going to see my GP and ask for a BCG booster.
The way I look at it, I’ve had the vaccine before and so don’t see any reason why a booster would do any harm.
I know it’s not a cure but any improvement in helping controll the blood sugars would help. (I’m always one looking for a quick fix/miracle cure)
It took the Americans 8 years to do the first small scale test,
I’m too impatient to wait another 8 years for them to do a bigger scale test.
