Hello everybody, i was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes over 3 yrs ago now, after further examinations i was also diagnosed with haemochromatosis, when i found out this was for life and i had to have blood removed every 14 days i was devastated. But i had a great doctor and she helped me cope with all the changes needed to put things back to normal. I changed my diet , did the hospital visits started cutting the carbs , blood tests etc etc, even excersise lol . I lost 4stone everything was going great, i then started going into some sort of denial, i started drinking lager again, the odd few pints, then i was thinking whats the harm anyway. now i dont even care.i think this is diabetic burnout, it feels more like depression , i dont even care if i get my toes amputated, IS THIS NORMAL ? its really getting me down, i,m usually quite happy , i was when i saw all the hard work was paying off , i feel like i,m going backwards , ive never been on this forum before, just wondering if anyone else has gone through this.....THANKS
