,..I'm new, just popped in to share some experiences, gain support and perspective and share my own. My names Nell, I'm 32, been a type 1 for 29 years....autoimmune response to the flu when I was little and all that jazz...
I'm a non-native N.Walian, live in a little house with my dog, like to go out for walks and the occasional bike ride. Really love health and nutrition and spend a lot of time helping out in the local health food shop. Love to read also, currently doing 1984...Winston and Julia have just been caught by the Thought Police, I'm a little frightened to go back to it right now as I have seen the movie.
Anyway, just been to see an endocrynologist about getting a pump fitted on the NHS, having it for 29 years I certainly know -how- to maintain things without (but my lifestyle is eratic due to my fitness regimes making it all such a chore), but then, I see it as a little like race car driving; most racing drivers drive automatic when not racing so...
Anyway, see you all in the forums.
Nell
