Hi!
I'm 18 and live in Italy, in a small town in the mountains 2h from Venice- mum's english, dad's italian, and I often go to visit grandma in the Uk, which I love
I was diognised with T1 in jan 2003, no complications or sad stories to tell - quite lucky afterall
I've decided to join a forum because I've suddenly realised that what I miss the most is having someone to talk to about my diabetes(not only to my doc) and listening to different experiences. My friends try their best to understand me but I know that's nearly impossible as I don't know anyone else with my problem!! I guess you all know how it feels..
I've looked for Italian forums-dissapointing- so that's why I'm here..the only prob is that I'm not used to talk about diabetes in English(sounds funny, but that's what happens when you're bilingual)
I do rapid at meals and 6U lantus at lunch time+ 22 bed time: this is to try to bring my BG down 'cos my last hbA1c was 9.4%, which meant that I couldn't start my driving licence :x
I'm trying my best
well, I hope to find what I'm looking for and to be helpful too.
ciao!
