Hi everyone,
I'm a new member and I have been a type 1 diabetic for the past 29 years. I was diagnosed at the age of 9 in August 1982. In April of this year I had DKA and became very ill very quickly and decided I had to do something about my control, so I went to a website and found some info on insulin/carb ratios and have had good control ever since! My hospital consultant is going to put me on the DAFNE course some time in the future and I'm hoping to go on an insulin pump eventually.
