[QUOTE="lizdeluz, post: 552110, member: 32108"] Your English is pretty good, Catarina! You did a really good job of explaining your diagnosis and your feelings about it! I wish I could use Portuguese that well! It's very understandable to feel sad and overwhelmed at this time: there is so much to learn and you have to be able to look after yourself - at school and in social situations like parties. However, in time, you will be able to explain your diabetes to your friends and they will probably be very helpful and supportive. Hopefully your school knows about your diagnosis and hopefully there is support at school from teachers or admin staff in order to give you time and space to do your blood tests and injections? I'm sorry you've had to put up with hypos. I know it's annoying to have to eat glucose tablets to deal with them but make sure you always have those glucose tablets with you. Soon you will find that you can avoid the hypos by balancing your food and insulin. Keep posting, people here will listen and help you with any problems. Luz X [/QUOTE]
