Hi,

For the past 5 nights I’ve been getting up for the toilet a lot just as I was before i found out I had type1 is this normal? I just feel like I’m going backwards.

I found out about the type 1 just over a month ago getting up a lot calmed right down after I started my insulin.

Also does Anyone get a bad belly pain in my abdomen because mines hurting a lot.

How are your blood sugars? If they are down from prediagnosis levels I'd be looking for another reason than diabetes. In your position, I would contact my GP.

Cold weather, angry people, queues,
Definitely agree with the two , the only reason you pee a lot is if your body is trying to get rid of the excess glucose in your system so if your bg is in the normal range and you're peeing a lot I would look for another reason .

You profile says you are male but not your age, ask your doctor for a PSA test

Also check that you are not suffering from an enlarged prostate as I was. The PSA test may not show that up but an ultrasound will
