[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 1645087, member: 6467"] Had a quick look round and she is quite a recent diagnosis. Yet again throwing up in the air the preconceptions about T1 and T2. From the Diabetes UK article I note a familiar statistic. "In fact, one in five people diagnosed with Type 1 are over 40 when they develop it". Ties in with the 1 in 5 who are normal weight when diagnosed with T2. And the 1 in 5 overweight/obese who go on to develop T2. Why always 1 in 5??? Why wasn't I born with a Number 4 on my back? I recognise her description of her diagnosis because much the same happened to me; lost half a stone and weeing all the time. However it seems that I am T2 as initially diagnosed. Good to see someone coping. On the injection front I read that she just nips away from the table saying she has to do her insulin. I assume most people have to get up and go for a pee from time to time so no big fuss. [/QUOTE]
