    Censorship

    What I dont get is that it seems to have been missed that not everyone will agree on what is said in discussion in general. And isnt what this forum is about Discussion and help. Whoever reads information on here, should be able surely to decide themselves how they process that information...

    Censorship

    That is a real shame, Defren has some valuable and good intentioned advice, support and opinions. As do we all. I don't know the exact reason but would imagine that only very bad langauge, aggressive and abusive comments would be enough for somone to be banned! As I have said before informed...

    Censorship

    Ashleigh has hit the nail on the head with the phrase........" Informed choice!!! " How can we make an informed choice without information and as adults it is up to us what we do with that information! I would much rather have the facts however scary they may be! Lucy xxx

    Hot Flushes and Diabetes

    I noticed some changes about 6 month ago. Mainly that when I was having a pill break I would have much heavier bleeding and the fact that my BG would plummet. Resulting in me struggling to adjust my insulin in time. I was having 2/3 hypos a day for about a week and a half every 3 weeks. I also...

    Lilla, I do know what you mean, you just never think it will be you! I also get that your Dad passed away in the same month I am sorry, also about your late Husband.

    Normal Life? or anywhere near.

    I suppose it becomes normal for us!! I funnily enough did have a passing thought the other day what it would be like just to eat. Without having to weigh, calculate, test and inject and felt a little pinch of envy .................And then it passed :D I suppose there could be worse things...

    Depression - A Thought

    Geoff I agree I have had both hyper and hypo and just recently suspected that I was having too much thyroxine as I had lost 1 1/2 stone! Which makes sense that if your size changes so may your requirement! Anyway I asked my GP who was most unhelpful. Luckily my Endo at the hosp had decided to...

    How urgent is it to get diagnosed?

    Stacey!!! You are not a Doctor, You took your son as any parent would have done and thankfuly he was diagnosed and is not being treated. Hindsight is all very well! I admit that as I am T1 I will be more alert if my son suddenly starts showing possible symptoms of Diabetes, but that is only...
