Where I put mine, sometimes a little lower down and as of yet I haven't had any problems (have used maybe 10 sensors now, all lasting 14 days) However I've definitely jinxed myself now!!

7 months...feels like 7 hundred years though

Done

Hi, I have been to lidl but there were so many bread rolls I didn't know which one to choose from. Is it in the freshly baked section? Could anyone take a picture of one for me? Thankyou [emoji847] Sent from my iPhone using DCUK Forum

Hi i was diagnosed in January and am still in the honeymoon phase. I am so sensitive to insulin even 1/2 unit can make a massive difference to whether I go high or low. It is very frustrating but I think it'd preferable to being out of it. I can ~slightly~ get away with eating food high in carbs...

So it worked out really well. I had a bag of food with me and just needed to show my pen and they let me through without checking what exactly was inside :) Sent from my iPad using DCUK Forum mobile app

Hi Natalie. When I was diagnosed earlier this year (at 23) my local hospital offered my sister and first cousins under the age of 40 the chance to have a blood test and find out their risk of developing Type 1. It sounded more like a percentage chance of developing it but as my sister (who's...

Thanks for all the replies!i don't have any ID card but like Tanny35 said, I'll just whip my pen out lol! And insist carrying food is absolutely necessary [emoji38] Sent from my iPad using DCUK Forum mobile app

Hi, Next weekend I'm going to see Coldplay at the Ethiad Stadium in Manchester. I carry snacks with me everywhere as I can hypo very easily. Is there anyone who can advise whether I will be allowed to take food/juice in with me? Or will I be made to buy the extortionately priced food there...

Hi, I was diagnosed Type 1 in January. When I was at the consultants she ran through a list of things I shouldn't do as a diabetic (things such as being a pilot) and one was bungy jumping as the process of tipping over the edge could lead to bursting of blood vessels behind the eye causing...

Congratulations [emoji1][emoji1] xx

Im Hannah, 22 from Lancashire wanting to chat to others with diabetes as I don't know any type 1s around my age (lol sounds like a dating profile!)

I would really recommend couch to 5k it worked really well for me last year! I joined a club that did it so had motivation to actually get out [emoji38] however I've since been diagnosed with T1 and need to start it again really but I keep having hypos when doing any exercise (unless I eat loads...

Hi I was diagnosed T1 in January and find that if I don't give myself insulin before my dinner then do exercise I'm still going hypo. I know I am still learning but hearing your story made me realise that I can (and will) get back to normal.

Lots of snow here in east Lancashire. Can't get into work yet so had a lovely walk with the dog instead [emoji2]

Diagnosed in January aged 22, started drinking a fair bit of water about 3 months before, had a few infections, eye, toe etc. The week leading up to being diagnosed my face started to sink in, with protruding lips and bulging eyes and a grey skin tone (think Freddie Mercury in his last video)...

Thanks for all the really positive comments everyone. I'm even more determined now to get back in the water (when I'm next by warm waters) I'm really pleased I found this forum, it's already helped me so much!!

Hello! I'm 22 and was diagnosed as a T1 on 15th January 2016. It was a massive blow but I'm managing. Waiting for my new driving license to be sent out. I've been back at work 2 and a half weeks now, had a minor hypo today (first one at work) but luckily I work in a hospital so nurses are...

Hello t1 diagnosed 2 weeks ago living in Lancashire :)
