hey guys i havnt been on here for quite some time but i started up this thread just for like advice that maybe somebody could give me,,, basically iv been a type 1diabetic since 2002 when i was 12 im now 19 going on 20 and in the first few years of having diabetes up until about 2 years ago things were fine a few addmitances into the hospital due to high blood sugar levels but nothing since but throughout the past 2 years things have been really bad if im telling the truth basically heres where the list begins...
im currently on 4 insulin injections a day 10 units of novorapid in the morning another at lunch another at 5pm along with a long actiong lantus insulin roughly around 1030pm to get me through the night but to tell the truth for about the past year i have been taking the lantus insulin at 1030pm of a night and that is all no novorapid insulin
i cant remember the last time i checked my blood sugar levels it has been that long since i have last tested them i eat sugary foods including sweets and sugary drinks which i am not meant to drink and most days i find myself not having proper meals its almost as if im in a state of denial about the whole thing even tho i have had diabetes type 1 since mid way 2002.
its like i refuse to beleive its there i dont feel sick in myself i feel fine but i am very worried because it has been that long since i have been this way with my foods diet and insulin injections iam afraid now that if i go back to my usual injections of 4 a day i will most defiantely have a hypo and it teriffies me to be honest
i was just thinking that it has been so long since i have been in the proper routine i am meant to be in could i ever go back to it ,,it frightens me to think day in day out how long will i exist on this type of lifestyle plus i am a smoker too have been for the past 3 years or so... and last year i missed a lot of hospital appointments sadly through my own fault of being afraid of what they would say to me if i whent ,, im just really worried any advice would be very very much appreciated,
kidn regards
