Hello I'm new

Hi Lucie.
Welcome to the forum.

Have a good look around and if you have any specific questions then just fire away. We have dedicated Type 1 and also an Insulin Pump user sections so they might be worth a good look.

Hi Lucie,
Welcome to the fourm, I can completely empathise with your situation. I fell into a coma in my sleep about 12 years ago, when my children were 5 & 2. I was lucky that my husband discovered me unconscious, and called the paramedics. The psychological effects hit me soon after, I was very tearful and kept thinking about what could have happened. I was also scared to take my short-acting insulin, I managed for about 2 years on Insulatard alone-which was not a good thing to do.
The positive thing is when I did start taking my insulin properly, I never had anything like this happen again, I was very careful and tested loads.
You'll get loads of help and advice on the forum, and hopefully your confidence back about managing your diabetes, and caring for your children.
