[QUOTE="Rosieroo, post: 1531761, member: 303603"] Hi all I am really struggling to come to terms with having diabetes. I was diagnosed with GD in pregnancy and then after having my baby the diabetes stayed and I have finally been diagnosed with lada. This was 19 months ago since I had my baby. At the same time I I developed hyperthyriod which has not helped things. I don't know if there is a link between the two. I am now on metformin linaglitin and a fixed dose of insulin twice a day. My levels for both diabetes and my thyroid are all normal and where they should be. However I still struggle. I struggle with numbness and tingling and shooting pains in my feet hands . I am going to see a neurologist this week as the speciality didn't think it was the diabetes that was causing it as I have not had it for very long to cause me there problems. I struggle with what to eat. I feel I can't eat any carbs or sugar at all as I feel bad after. Since being on the insulin I get alot of lows. I'm struggling to get into a good routine and just even come to terms with it. Having a family and trying to out what to eat and cook for everyone is making me unhappy. My little boy loves rice and pasta and I can't eat rice at all so I end up making different things for everyone. I just feel ill all the time and I just want to cry. I feel like I'm just feeling sorry for myself all the time and I don't want to anymore and can't snap out of it. I don't have any o e else to talk to and people don't seem to understand about diabetes and how it affects your day to day. I feel very sad d Sent from my SM-G950F using [URL=http://r.tapatalk.com/byo?rid=67]Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app[/URL] [/QUOTE]
