Hello! I'm Rachel, and new to Diabetes.co.uk as of tonight! (Not sure why I have only just discovered this really.) I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when I was 11 and I'm now 20, so I'm offering my advice and support to anybody that needs it. I've been through my turbulent teenage years in High School, College and now I'm in my last year of University at Chester. I've had ups and downs throughout the years but if anyone knows how to get through them, it's me! If you have been newly diagnosed and are worried about anything (whatever age you are), feel free to add me for a chat. I could probably help, and I'm well aware that talking about things does help a lot. Feel free to private message me, I will do my best to help
Hi Rach and welcome to the forum It's very kind of you to offer help and support to members drawing upon your valuable experience and I am sure some people will take you up on that offer. I was interested to read your other thread on your new diet and wish you luck with it. Let us know how you get on with it.
Thank you! And I will make sure I post my progress, I have started this morning with Shredded Wheat and 0.2G sugar Soya Milk! I'm thinking of starting my own blog anyway so I would post it on here if I did
