[QUOTE="Circuspony, post: 1828068, member: 432241"] I'm 10 months into diagnosis as an adult and its definitely slowed me down. My energy levels are a lot lower and I get tired easily. It's frustrating because I can't do everything I used to do - my body just isn't capable any more. Hba1c down to 49 now so consultants just say 'you're doing well', but really I'd like my old life back!! My GP ran blood tests to make sure there was nothing else going on, but it does look like this is all due to the diabetes. I found myself in the pharmacy the other day thinking I'd be glad when this was all sorted, then it kicked in that this isn't going to be sorted. It's here for the rest of my life and that's quite depressing really. [/QUOTE]
