[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2218484, member: 41816"] [USER=519791]@Sgathach[/USER] How are you feeling this morning? And how did the injection go? It is a heck of a lot to process, especially at the start, and with a language barrier to cope with too. Keep posting and asking questions. There are a lot of T1s on the forum who have all been through what you are going through, and understand exactly the stages of adjustment that you will experience. How long are you away from the UK? And is there someone you could take to future health appts as a translator? Friend? Family? Neighbour? Co-worker? Also, if it is possible, could you fill in your profile details more? It will help other members understand where you are coming from with questions, especially about hypos, hypers, medication, and so on. To update your profile, click on your profile name, and then select Personal Details, and update all the fields. Some of that information will then appear under your name beside your posts, so that members can see what type of diabetes you have. That then saves you having to answer the same questions over and over again... :) [/QUOTE]
