- people thinking i have type 2 not type 1 and media not helping.
Hi,
I have been T1D for the last 7 years, im 28 now.
I have always been fit and healthy as alot of T1d's are.
i have some very major strugles comming my way and need some help.
I have NEVER had keytones even with bgl of over 56 when i was first diagnosed(survived thanks to google)
my control is decent with between mid 7's and 8's as usual (could improve)
I now have antibodies not only killing my isletts redering me type one but also my thyroid.
but now.... i have antibodies kill both the insulin i inject and also the thyroxine im taking. i am getting more insulin resistant( getting fatter due to having more insulin and having no energy due to the thyroxine getting slaughtered.
this is bloody anoying and today got told that it would only get worse and there is nothing i can do.
metphorman cant be given or similar due to me having a 6x normal lactic acid response and putting me at highest risk of lacticacidosis.
seems like everything is broken and unable to be fixed......and yes i understand that diet will help... but it will not stop the increase of antibodies at the rate they are comming out.
im a banker and have a very stress full job, im sure that isnt helping.
Are there any other type ones like me who can lend some advice. remember i was fit exercising 8 hours a week with perfect diet when the resistance started to really take hold, has only gotten worse since then.
