I was diagnosed with type1 diabetes just over a month ago and have put on 5pounds since then, I'm on novo mix 30 twice daily, I don't carb count yet .. I'm wondering if anyone has any advise on any diets that's worked for them as I am just feeling uncomfortable with my weight at the moment :(
I've been prescribed novorapid to use on the days I'm unwell, but right now I'm really craving chocolate but my sugars are too high can I inject some novorapid to bring them down so I can have some chocolate or is this silly??

Aw thanks everyone! I will probably just go out and have fun, don't wanna stay in on my 18th haha .. So basically I just need to check my sugar levels when I'm out and make sure I ear on the way home :)

I've been advised from my doctor not to drink any alcohol on my birthday. As my blood sugars are still not level :( I just can't seem to get them under 10 it's so frustrating ..

Hi, I'm nearly three weeks diagnosed with type 1 diabetes so still have so much to learn .. I'm 18 in a few weeks and was planning to go out for a few alcoholic drinks with my friends but I'm scared incase something happens. Was just wondering if I could get some advice on drinking alcohol...
I'm not even sure what that means so I don't know .. It's still all new to me !! Thank you, yeah I'm sure it will just become a normal routine for me sooner or later

I like that the pen doesn't really look like an injection so it's not as scary .. Thanks for all your feedback!! Another thing I tested my blood glucose levels this morning before breakfast and they were at 10.3 but then before lunch they had went up to 18.2 .. Is there anyway I could bring them...
