[QUOTE="nomoredonuts, post: 1206491, member: 271833"] [USER=284779]@GBS_82_[/USER] Hi Gareth, I was diagnosed with M.E. / CFS back in 1994 after a viral illness which was taking an age to shift. At that point I was working at three jobs with extra shifts at a fourth here and there. I was addicted to the buzz of different roles and paid too little attention to inconveniences like health. My diagnosis came after exclusive tests for everything you can think of. Lots of water has flowed under the bridge since then and I have't really given my condition much attention for years. I learned to balance work with rest and only occasionally overdo things now. Some weeks back I posted an inquiry about M.E. / CFS sufferers on the forum, to see if (as you said) there is any links. To date I have had no replies. My personal belief is that stress engenders the release of cortisone/ adrenaline which contributes to high blood sugar, which may or may not have pointed me towards eventual diabetes. That being said, you may simply be reacting to the shock of your diagnosis, and in time will get to grips with giving your T1 a good kicking. All the very best. NMD [/QUOTE]
