[QUOTE="Willoughby, post: 693783, member: 144013"] It is so interesting to read all of your stories - and so many things relate to my experience. I was diagnosed last January after major blurry vision, thrush, thirst, tingling skin, etc. etc. I then found I had background retinopathy when I had my first eye check in the spring - which was a shock. I now think I had T1 coming on for a while (there were a few health pointers in previous months and I'm cross that I never picked up on the link between yeast infections and diabetes!) but also wonder whether the retinopathy was caused by getting my levels down fast as Phoenix experienced! I guess I'll never know! I too don't have an increased appetite at all - although my insulin requirements are fairly low at the moment in comparison to some people. The sleep thing too is weird. In the last few years I have never slept so well - before that I found far more difficult. Perhaps this is an age thing though! It is great to read so many posts from positive people. This is my first one - although I have been gaining strength and encouragement from reading them almost since diagnosis. Thanks to all who share their experiences - when I was first diagnosed it was a lifeline! [/QUOTE]
