Hi all,
First post on this site, but I have read the forums many many times and always find the input to be useful.
I've also searched the forum, but not really found a post that matches my circumstances.
A bit about me:
I am a Type 1 Diabetic, have been for 19 years now, I am 23 years old.
I like to think I am very knowledgeable about my condition, I look after myself and am pretty well controlled. My last HBA1c was 7.0 (Not perfect, but not awful).
Recently I have been noticing that my urine in the morning is rather 'bubbly', as if there was toilet cleaner or alike in the bowl. It's not what I would call 'severe', but is noticeable. I would like to note that this ONLY happens when I wake in the morning, it does not happen at any other time during the day. I, as a lot of other diabetics, get dehydrated in the night, so my urine is very concentrated when I wake up.
My last urine / blood tests were done in November, and all was completely normal. I also have never had any problems with kidneys in the past.
I have an appointment with my doctor in a couple of weeks, as I thought it was best to get it checked out. But for now, I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? It maybe completely normal and I've simply never noticed it before.
Again, please note that this is exclusively First Thing In The Morning, and it stops as soon as I've had my first drink.
Would love your input, and please, no hysteria
Thanks
Mark
