Hello All,
My name is Dean I'm 25 and recently been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, also suffered a heart attack at the same time as being in hospital DKA, its a tough month haha.
I work in Security and run my own security company, have a son who is 19 months old.
Not very good at the whole "talk about yourself" thing so I'll leave it there for now.
Hopefully speak to you all regularly.
Dean.
Hi, Deanoh, just noticed these posts - just wondered whether your heart attack was caused by the DKA? If so, take care, rest up as much as possible, it may take quite a time to recover, but you will. Years ago i was in intensive care with serious DKA on diagnosis and cardiac arrest and kidney probs were mentioned - i was told by the Prof that it might take over a year to fully recover. Things have probably improved in intensive care now, but, all the same, please remember that recovery takes time, hopefully you are seeing a specialist. Best wishes
