    Passing out, newly diagnosed type 1

    I can't be sure if she's been checked out for any of those, I miss the days when we used to sit down with the doc and could ask loads of questions, these days it's all phone appointments, and normally when one or both of us are working, my wife wouldn't remember any of those names, and if doc...

    My wife is 52, a size 14 dress (don't know weight), 10 months ago she was rushed into intensive care, her blood sugar was close to 30, but her keytones was 7.0, we found out she was type 1 diabetic, it's fair to say she's struggled with diabetes since. She's actually been passing out since...
