Hi I'm Donna,
I just joined today to see if anyone was discussing the Horizon programme about fasting and found a thread straight away. I'm glad this looks like an active forum.
So I'm 44, female, married, Type 1 for 25 years and on a pump for 8 years. Terrified of hypos, so have had raised bg levels for 20 years. I've got retinopathy but no significant sight loss. Had lots of laser and an Avastin injction last year, eeeeek!!! :shock: Slight gastroparesis, which is fine most of the time but about once a year I throw up for 24 hours. Nice!!!
I am obsessed with knitting. This year I have started growing my own veg organically with great results (beginner's luck!!).
We have an 8 year old Golden Lab who eats far too much!
Anything else you want to know???
Best wishes
Donna
