Hello in May I was Diagnosed with Type 1,
for about a week I couldn't stop drinking any form of liquid. My muscles were so sore, felt like they were floating and my eyes were going blurry. So I went to the doctors and they checked my urine and my blood, not sure about the urin but my blood was at 33.3 (Which I think is the maximum most readers go to)
So I get told and given lots of stuff to take home with me, numbers, appointments the works. I started taking my insulin, going to appointments and following a diet. I am not a stupid person, so I latched on to the terminology and even my diabetic nurse / dietician was pleased at how well I took to having diabetes. I think this was because it was almost a novelty "Hey Hey I get free prescriptions".
About three weeks ago, I decided I had enough, this is something I do not want. I stopped taking my insulin, which made me ill. I started eating almost pure sugar, which made me ill.
I have calmed down a bit now, still struggling to get used to it and getting really fed up with friends and family not understanding but assuming they know what they are talking about. I was eating scrambled eggs the other day and my sister came in the room and took my eggs away and said "Nope you're diabetic". This would be understandable but I have been told eggs have very low carbs in it and what was really annoying is my sister doesn't live with me, she just came in!
Anyways, My name is Roy but my friends call me Rumpo. I am 22 yrs old, like I said I have type 1 diabetes. This is somethings I really do not want anymore so any suggestions on getting rid of it would be great
