[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1718211"] My first thoughts were very mixed. I was in my mid 30s, had been feeling run down for a few months and had had a couple of previous doctors' appointments where they had suggested a virus or UTI or something else so I was relieved to finally have something which could be treated. I knew nothing about diabetes at the time because no one in my family or friends had it so I was scared and upset but not sure what I was scared and upset about. However, my overwhelming emotion was determination: the diabetes nurse I met told me diabetes should not stop me doing what I want so I was determined to prove that ... including doing the Moon Walk (26 mile night time walk around London for Breast Cancer) in a couple of months.
