Morning all,
I am a newbie so do excuse me if I am in the wrong place.
My husband was diagnosed with Diabetes on 29th January 2014, on top of his MS another thing to challenge us.
I noticed he wasnt feeling too well and a very dry mouth and quite confused he was admitted to hospital and his bloods have been sent away to Exeter to have an antibody test all which we have been told will take 6 weeks. The reason for this is hubby had ketones in his urine and they are not sure which type diabetes he has. He is being treated at present as if he has Type 1 with insulin twice a day and metformin morning and evening.
Do you know how many carbs per meal he should be eating?
We have yet to see the community diabetic nurse but hopefully when we do we will be told more.
Thanks
Caz
