I'm type 2 diabetic, with a host of other problems, liver transplant being the main issue which affects my diabetes, the anti rejection drugs play havoc with my blood sugars and appetite ( also sanity ) . One of the issues is getting the hospital and GP's diabetes professionals to look at the whole issue and not just the diabetes.

hello, first time posting here, though have been reading these posts for some time now. i'm not sure what type I am any more, I was type 2, which went off suddenly. various tests later found cysts in my pancreas. had a lot of pancreas removed, spleen and gall bladder too. did start on insulin 1 month before surgery which made me feel so much better. have healed well so far, but been reading about all the different types of diabetes and am now confused. not sure i'm posting this in the right thread but i'm sure it can be moved if needed. I am a 59 yr old female with a new lease of life now, although I am still getting nagged about not overdoing it post surgery. ( op was beginning of june) will try and do the whole answers thing later.
 
 
I am a new parent of diabetes. My son Haydn is 8 and was diagnosed in Jan this year. It has been a very scary and complicated time for us and hope by reading these posts we will be able to face this head on. So many doubts and unsuraties.
I look forward to being part of a support system.
