Hi everyone first time on here,52yr old male I was diagnosed with type 1 April 2022, I have had three COVID vaccines,first two were astra zenica and final one was given on 28/12/21(Pfizer) with in two weeks I had diarrhea for 8weeks approx,had a telephone appointment with local Dr seemed to think it was gastroenteritis,(stool sample) came back all clear, shortly after I contracted the classic symptoms, finally went to docs tested my bloods which were 141mmol/mol also ketones 4.4 rushed into a+e first insulin shot managed to get home 5hrs later,I now take novarapid&lantus and the libre2 sensor which I find a godsend,down to 42mmol/mol now,I just wondered if anyone had a similar story to me after the vaccines or is it just a coincidence p.s nobody in my family has diabetes,sorry it's a bit long winded,thanks guys
