I'm 24 and have had T1 since I was about 8, up until I had a RTC when I was 14 I had well managed bloods, since then I hadn't had good control as well. I was frequently in hospital with ketoacidosis, got the stage when I was twenty minutes away from permently checking out. Last year I went on the DAFNE course and this, coupled with getting an amazingly supportive girlfriend, lead me to getting a handle on my sugars at last. I even managed to get my HBA1C down to single fingures for the first time in about 6 or 7 years. Recently though I've started to lose control again and I don't know why, I'm doing everything right...or at least I thought I was. It's all just getting me down I guess. I have an appointment with my DAFNE nurse on Wednesday so I'm hoping she will be able to help but I just wanted to come on here and hopefully get some advice from fellow Diabetics.
