Hi everyone,
Three months ago I was diagnosed with type 1. I had no history in the family whatsoever, and thought at 21 that my symptoms could never be diabetes, but hey, that's life! Just wondering if anyone else here has had a type one diagnosis which came as a real shock? Or if anyone else has been diagnosed whilst at uni? (I'm about to finish a years placement before going into my fourth year)
Thanks
