[QUOTE="kerrygrant26, post: 488191, member: 93358"] Hello and welcome to the forum, sorry to hear that you have diabetes but it's good that you've found us so early. I was diagnosed type 1 with hyperthyroidism about 5 weeks ago and while i cannot tell you which type of diabetes you have i can honestly say the shock and devastation you feel right now does subside, even though it feels as though your world has just come crashing through the floor. Diabetes is better controlled now than it has ever been, advances in insulin control for type 1 and diet and exercise for type 2 diabetes really do lead to a better more stable future for us all. You can live a long and normal life with diabetes now - which I didn't believe in the beginning I just knew about all the horror stories. The ladies and gents with more knowledge will be along shortly and I'm sure daisy will be along with some very helpful information. You're not alone in this, the fear will go once you have a definite diagnoses (T1/T2) and you come to terms with whichever type you may be. In the mean time try not to worry (easier said than done, I know), you will be well looked after by the GPs, Diabetes nurses and everyone else involved in your care and of course we're all here for support x [/QUOTE]
