Hi my name is Rob,i'm 45 years old and have type 1 diabetes.
As you can probably tell i'm into heavy metal ;)
I enjoy reading,mainly epic fantasy/scifi and am a huge Game of Thrones fan.
I was diagnosed with diabetes in '06 and was initially told i was type 2 and only needed tablets and diet.Six months later i was admitted to hospital and was told i needed insulin and was lucky to be alive !! (even though i'd totally changed my lifestyle and lost 4 stone).Since then i was told i was a type 2 insulin dependant diabetic,until may this year when i finally managed to get referred to the diabetic clinic at our local hospital were (may) were i have now been told i'm type 1 !!
Anyway,it's nice to be here and look forward to chatting with you guys !!
