Hi @tim200s thanks for the link to your post. Many similarities to my recent experience...

Hi Looking for some advice please. I have to fill in a medical questionnaire and take it with me to interview in sealed envelope. OK to declare type 1 and high blood pressure (all controlled well) but its asking me if I give permission for my GP to release my medical records. It is also asking...

I was diagnosed at 14 with type 1 and internalised my depression/anxiety which is just as bad. At least you know how troubled your daughter is and are trying to help which is all you can do. It's so difficult at her age, I don't feel I really was allowed to be a child tbh. If you can arrange...

Have to agree that the issue is not the pump as I'm having similar issues adjusting my basal on an MDI regime. Stick with it.

Hi Just wondering if anyone here has any experience of Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM)? I was diagnosed with this in July 2016 after a one-off episode, which affected my balance and my brain played some tricks on me...Brain lesions and inflammation, which many resolved eventually.

Morning Over the years I've had various aches and pains, sore wrists which come and go, a knee that clicks, my left hand that I couldn't make a fist and now can, but now with clicky bones... Over the last week my right hand has been sore and stiff when I wake up, it doesn't go away, but I can...

Thanks everyone, as you know generally its only other diabetics who will understand why I'm so pleased

Not too bad at all hypo wise, running close or just below 4 at times, but overall in range! Thanks
