[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1709762, member: 429870"] I'm sorry you have so many symptoms and worries. Given your A1c result, which is brilliant, I think, indeed I am SURE that you can cross diabetes off the list of health problems you are worrying about. OK eating tons of chocolate is not the best, but how many 21-year olds do you know who haven't done that or much MUCH worse? And think how much chocolate I had eaten by the time I found out I shouldn't, as the ripe old age of 75? (Clue - I LOVE chocolate!) Maybe you could do with a few counselling sessions to help you talk through why you are feeling so anxious. CBT is often available on the NHS and might well suit you. And you could profit from your anxiety by starting a healthier eating plan. Even ration the chocolate to a few squares of the dark sort each day as a special treat? [/QUOTE]
