[QUOTE="Jordi77, post: 1476546, member: 221771"] I remember when I was diagnosed and it was on a valentines day stuck in a hospital bed with a couple of pumps on me to get my sugars down and the ketones out of my system and I was 17 when it happened and I was placed on insulin straight away and on it for 10 weeks before the honeymoon period and then I was on insulin again and tablets after being diagnosed with the wrong diabetes they said I had type 1 when I was diagnosed but in fact I have type 2 diabetes and now I am on insulin for life and over the 22 years I have had diabetes I have been on insulin and tablets and the only treatment that works is insulin and I get resistant to insulin and my doses go up and down but mainly up and I know how you feel as that is how I was when I was diagnosed and just couldn't be bothered with it all and the same when I was doing night work just wasn't bothered about the diabetes as long as I was able to get to work and home again and that went on for a few years until I broke my knee and I couldn't do anything much so I just wanted to sort myself out and the diabetes and I have up to now and I hope that you will eventually [/QUOTE]
