I guess I'm here just to moan a little. But I'm having trouble getting through this whole business. I was Dx in Feb/07 as type 1 at age 60 (the odds are astronomical as I've found out) and this has destroyed me. I've been reading a book "Just Fine" how people with invisible, chronic diseases get by and I Realize I'm not. I was doing all the right things "they" say-watching the weight, exercise, eating right-but I still got it. And I'm still doing all that plus carb counting & insulin but the control is non-existent and even worse since I had to start thyroid meds, plus other medical problems I never had before. It seems I hit 60 and everything hit the fan and is going down hill. Didn't sleep last night and all the crying bouts and warm milk and soft music didn't induce sleep..Non stop worrying. Hell I'm even crying while typing this and I'm at the library (no computer of my own). Sorry i just had to vent.
