Had quite the shock this weekend when I was called into the hospital after a regular check up (I only went for this as my parents were concerned about weight loss!) and diagnosed with type one diabetes.
This is my first post so I hope people can help and then hopefully I'll be able to help others in the future!
I have many questions but I suppose my main worry is how this could impact my "uni life" and experience as I go into third year.
It's not as if I go binge drinking every night or anything but every now and again I like to go out or go to the pub etc; how will diabetes affect this? Can I still get drunk and have a good time? Aha!
Lastly, I've never been a smoker and never intend to be, but in the last year I occasionally had one every week or two, just when stressed or social smoke, it would only be one every week or so: is that still feasible? Dissertation writing without just one stress release like that could hurt haha!!
Appreciative of any comments
