[QUOTE="ImmaGurlWithT1D, post: 516028, member: 102930"] I was diagnosed last February, on the 24th. I was visiting my pediatrician for my normal visit, as I have hypothyroidism, and she asked me how often I was using the bathroom, drinking water, etc. I told her, and I guess she thought it was a lot, because she tested my blood, which was over 500mg. She told my dad, which was there with me, and talked for a few minutes, and she said I needed to go to the hospital as soon as I could. This was a Monday, at about noon, and I have two younger siblings, so there was a lot of confusion. We ended up letting my little brother and sister sleep over my grandma and grandpa's house that night. The next morning, I had breakfast, which was the last time I ate a meal without taking insulin, and we left for the hospital at 7am. I stayed two, long, agonizing, overwhelming days, and I was allowed to go home! :) [/QUOTE]
