Hi Anyone else hear on Radio 2 that researchers have found camel milk to have a protein containing insulin in it, which actually doesn't get destroyed by the human digestive system? All trials (OK.... not many yet!!) are showing that there is a deinite reduction in insulin needs for T1 with...

hmmm reading about the teflon coated cells or 'T cells' on this web site.... yet another interesting development!! We'll have non-stick insides you could fry a carb free egg on! :D Cath

Hi I'm relatively new T1 and wondering how 'do-able' previous interest of scuba diving will be. The fact I'm even prepared to consider it shows I've moved on as far too scared to consider that 6 months ago!! Is there anyone who still manages to do this and what effect has it had on BG?? Are...

OK this is just another version of what people have said before but I'm sooo annoyed I need to let it out somewhere! Diagnosed T1 at the age of 34 6 months ago and I'm really chuffed at how I've adapted, first HBA1C was 6.2, I'm exercising loads and leading completely normal life.... minus the...

Hi I'm interested in those 'gluco watches' for better way of describing it. The non-invasive BG measuring devices you wear as a watch and need a prescription for. I appreciate if it appears low or high you still need to finger prick but sounds a great idea for during the day at work. Where I'm...

Hi I was diagnosed Type 1 a fortnight ago and whilst I've come sooo far in this time and am getting to grips with it and have my blood far more in control I do have a question around the time of one of my jabs. I'm on 3 jabs of Novorapid in the day and 1 of Levermir overnight. Breakfast and...

Hi. I was diagnosed type 1 over the weekend after getting taken in to hospital with blood of 32. I'd had classic symptoms but had been in total denial for a good month or more as am only 34 and fit and healthy so couldn't possibly get diabetes!!! Have learned sooo much in a few days but seems...
