Thank you for the advice, hope all gets better!

That's very true, think the number 1 rule of diabetes is to control it and not let it control you. Otherwise it can have a real bad effect on both physical and mental wellbeing.

From what I've been told, people with diabetes should always have a Hba1c slightly higher than those people who do not have diabetes.

Really good! Happy to hear and hope it gets even better! Keep up the good work☺️

An insulin pump is an option for me at the minute and obviously from this post it doesn't sound very good? Would you advise getting one or sticking to injections?

Thank you!

Thank you!

Just got my hba1c results back, gone down from 14.1 in September to 9.8 now. Feeling happy☺️

High blood glucose levels can cause numbness in certain limbs I believe

Brilliant advice, thank you so much

Thank you ! Scary but useful advice !

Hello! How are you finding coping with it all?

Just wanted people to comment complications they are aware of as I don't know a lot.

Yeah reading about it all is quite a scare! Diabetes can bring some many unknown complications and I don't think society knows enough about it.

Wouldn't ever smoke! Just didn't fully Understand the effect upon diabetes

How long were you smoking for whilst you had diabetes if you don't mind me asking?

I'm 17 and I have had diabetes since May 2006, feel free to message me about anything you want to talk about

?

Bringing back the memories before I was diagnosed back on the 25th may 2006, diabetes although I hate it had made me a stronger person.

Well done, should be very proud! I'm finding it hard to stay on track! It's easy to slip off and get high blood sugars and eat sugary foods etc…people like you are inspiration and I congratulate and thank you for that! Hope all is still going well☺️
