    There is a meeting in Hounslow this evening though the subject matter may not be relevant to a young T1.

    Search for Hounslow & you will find reports of other meetings including those I have been to - & spoken at.

    It may be most useful to get on a DAFNE course & meet other diabetics. You can ask your Dr, nurses, dietitians about meetings & courses. There is a lot going on if you can find it.

    Do you see the "Balance" magazine? Diabetes UK are geared towards T1.
