Introduction

fotizo said:

Hi! I am fotizo, am 31 and live in Germany. I was diagnosed with T2, then "switched" to T1 around seven years ago. Out of foolishness I didn't manage my disease all that well – fairly half-heartedly – but recently decided that I need to get this under control.

I am looking forward to getting to know you all and discussing with you!

I hope you manage to achieve your goal. I was Type 1 for 54 years and behaved as though I didn't have it for a large part of the first 20 years. I paid for that with retinopathy, nephropathy and Charcot foot. I must say that when I started to take things very seriously in late 1978, the rot slowed down and allowed me to soldier on till undergoing a kidney/pancreas transplant in 2013. I reckon you stand a very good chance of living a decent life and staving off all the horrors in the cupboard! The very best of luck.
