Welcome to the forums.

I doubt that your sore hip is related to diabetes but get it checked out if you don't feel better in a few days.

I see you have posted elsewhere about having a high level of support but you can also find some good starter information by clicking on the links in any moderator's signature. (Turn your phone sideways to reveal signature panels. )

I wouldn't link them, could just be as simple as you've been lying awkwardly on it, I woke with things like that long before I became type 1, I'd give it a few days then go and see about it if its no better unless your unable to put any weight on it in which case you could pop to your local a&e or miu if your lucky enough to have one

I also had sore joints having only recently come out of hospital with a severe DKA due to undiagnosed type 1 diabetes. My diabetic care team told me this wasn’t unusual due to the high BS. I also have very blurry vision

How long have you been diagnosed? Have you been to the opticians about your vision?

Sorry but from personal experience I'd suggest you maybe both get your eyes looked at, I was extremely unlucky to be diagnosed with diabetic macular oedema a few weeks after I was diagnosed type 1 and I required urgent eyelea treatment to stop it progressing (eye injections) o was booked in for my first 2 sessions before Christmas and i was diagnosed the beginning of November so its just something to be very careful with as I say I was extremely unlucky but it has installed something in me about other newly diagnosed people x
