[QUOTE="Rokaab, post: 2168002, member: 450212"] I agree with many of the posts and definitely ignore Google (looking up many medical issues on Google is generally a bad idea cos most of the time, somewhere you get to will say its cancer). I'm another one who is racking up the years (42 so far since diagnosis), not as long as quite a few members though, just try and manage it as best you can (sometimes it will just not behave), and whilst you have read that diabetes can take time off your life, there's not much that doesn't (personally I don't want to live to 100 anyways), when I was young, T1's were told that they didn't really need to think about a pension (they didn't expect me to get past 35 apparently - ha, I proved them wrong), now you'll get told yes you definitely should sort one out, a lot has changed, tech has improved immensely.
