I arrived for an inpatient stay on an eating disorder unit only to find they had no needles to give my insulin. They put me on a tube feed with no short acting insulin at all, ended up close to DKA and waking up with sugars off the scale, and on top of that was denied any extra water as that was...

Hey everyone! Bit of a weird situation. Received order today from Medtronic - usual supplies of cannula's and syringes. Signed for it and did think there was a fair few boxes but didn't think anything more of it. Anyway, turns out that along with what i ordered they have sent me a whole new...

Waterloo Road had an episode featuring a character with diabetes and an eating disorder who wasn't taking her insulin. Hollyoaks had Dan a few years back as a t1, and now Jason. Stacey in the Babysitters Club haha! In the film she goes hiking with her new bf and doesn't tell him she's diabetic...
