Hello!
I've just recently been diagnosed as a type 1 (I'm 31) on the 16th June 2017. All came a bit of a shock after having some blood tests for something else and then got called back to the doctors to discuss the results.
My HbA1c was 163 mmol/mol and ketones in my urine. An hour later from the doctors I was up the hospital with the possibility of going onto an insulin drip. Thankfully that didn't happen! I have to say a big thank-you to my local NHS as everyone has been great.
Everything has been a bit of a roller coaster to say the least.
