[QUOTE="bmtest, post: 1912925, member: 21293"] You can expect a long and healthy life these days free of complications especially with the high tech diabetic management tools available today. I was diagnosed T1 40 years ago at 6ft I tipped the scales at 8 stone dead, lost a lot of weight till finally went to doctors which was on Christams Eve and spent a couple of week in hospital. Like people have already said urine testing was the norm and you injected at start of day and tested when arrived home from work or school, it was strict diet and very little correction done with dose, hence would get home and get the 2% orange test tube result meaning high sugars especially if i had cold. I have no complications at all but have always tested each day rain or shine and a guy I know is 80 with no complications who has had it well over 50 years, sometimes you have bad spells in control that normal.
