Helloooo!!
I'm 21 years only and was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 3 weeks ago (had to spend the night in hospital)!
I was in my last few weeks of University so sort of had to be positive about the diagnosis, deal with it and focus on getting my work done..
Now I'm finished everything is starting to sink in a little more and I'm having some up and down days - took me 45 minutes to do an injection the other day, ridiculous as I had done almost 70 before that but just couldn't bring myself to do it!
Just wanted to know how other people have found their first few weeks/months after being diagnosed at a similar age and just be able to speak to others who understand it all!
