Hi guys! Happy Friday! I was diagnosed with Type 1 last Tuesday after a few weeks of waiting for test results to come back. I'm 23 and have never had any major health issues my whole life so the whole thing has come as a bit of a shock!
I've been told that I'm still in the Honeymoon Period and producing some insulin. I'm on a low dose of insulin in the evening and before meals. I'm wondering what other people's experience with the HP is? I know everyone is different but how often did you need to increase the amount of insulin you take? It's a lot to take in at once and I just want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong! Of course I wouldn't do anything without speaking with my DSN but just curious to know.
Any other general advise for dealing with the initial diagnosis?
Many thanks in advance! xx
