[QUOTE="JMK1954, post: 2444507, member: 352098"] At a hospital clinic appointment, they are also likely to weigh you. If you have scales at home, it might be worthwhile checking your weight before you go. Hospital scales can be massively inaccurate or spot on. Most recently-diagnosed type 1 people tend to put back any weight they have lost pretty rapidly, so you may find your weight has increased. I think we can all understand why you have been feeling down. There would be something seriously wrong with anyone who thought a type 1 diagnosis was good news. Try to ignore people who aren't helpful in what they say or do. Living with type 1 is not always straightforward, but you will get better at managing things. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
