19 ! Was diagnosed April 2016

Yeaaah, it’s been tricky coming to terms with it recently but I think I’m getting there. yeah my specialist has advised me on all of the long term effects of poor control and I want to do everything to avoid it ! Thank you for the link as well, will definitely invest in some of that !! Thank...

Thank you man ! It’s poo living with it but I’m getting there, cheers for the support my dude I appreciate it

It’s manageable after a while !! How are you getting on with it?

I hit my head when I was still in sixth form, had to go to the hospital n I lost weight, my sisters a type 1 diabetic as well so I used her meter to test n I was 35 haha *edited by a moderator to remove swear word

I need to do the BERTIE course to get a pump and also getting the freestyle libre very soon !

I currently work behind a bar for part time while I’m at uni, any advice on how to manage it ?

Jesus man ! I got diagnosed 4 months before going to uni n that was bad timing ! But in August that’s awful,

Yeah man ! It frustrates the hell out of me when I’m with me pals as well, by the time I’ve tested n injected they’re already half way through their meal and it kinda discourages me sometimes from treating myself sometimes

Ahh that was so quick !! Right so I absolutely bloody hate havin to stab myself every-time I eat ! How are you finding it my dude ?

Just joined the forum so just looking for someone cool to chat with ! I was diagnosed in April 2016 when I was 18 n it was really **** ! Actively lookin for someone to ***** about diabetes to n don’t mind listening x Cheers kids x
