    Ileostomy and diabetes type 2

    Hi Marjorie, I have had an ileostomy for 5 years, also have type1 diabetes. I keep to a low carb diet, and drink plain tap water. Ask any questions you like, I was originally diagnosed as having type 2.

    Ataxia

    Hi, thanks for reply. I gave up driving at 70, still walking with rollator, manage to exercise on my treadmill (holding on) !! for 20 minutes daily. My speech is affected, so I find type 1 the least of my worries.
