Hello @Delticmatt100 Welcome to the forum and the world of T1.

I would update your Profile especially to do with which Type of Diabetic you are because it can impact on the answers or advice to get.

Pneumonia? UGH! not nice but good to see you are on the mend.

New T1 too well it will be a bit of learning curve from now on but once you get the hang of it, it really should not stop you from doing anything.

Have a look around the forum and ask away, there is usually someone around who can help out.

As for getting on, I have been T1 for a lllooonnggg time, yes it has its ups and downs, sometimes I get it right sometimes not, don't stop me from doing anything, life is to short and there is so much to see and do

If you want o get some idea of what its like living with T1 then have a look in the "Type 1R US" thread. There is a bunch of us in there that chat away, some long terms, some new, some not had it so long, big mix in fact

Take care

As you've updated your photo guess you have found out. But when you sign in you will see your name top right of the screen, click on that and a drop down should appear, from there you can update most things one of which is Profile that is if your using a computer or tablet, not sure from a phone.

Welcome, and hope you feel loads better soon.

It's in the Type 1 section, but here's the latest page...

https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/type-1stars-r-us.150597/page-890

Unless you need some reading material whilst recovering, I'd start at the end! 890 pages and 17770-ish posts is a lot!
