[QUOTE="hodor1234, post: 2077675, member: 449362"] As far as I know I have not developed any eye problems, but I have developed some neuropathy in my hands and feet, possibly in my bladder aswell. I also get light headed standing up and I’m losing my hypo awareness which are signs of autonomic neuropathy. I am only twenty and have only been diagnosed 3.5 years :( although I do not have the same complications I know how it feels to be facing such a harsh reality that may be for the rest of your life when your whole life is ahead of you. May I ask how long your diagnosed, what type and how poor has your bgs control been. I’m now keeping my blood sugar in right control, excericing and eating healthily as well as I’ve stopped smoking, in a an all out effort to try and reverse the damage I’ve done to myself. I’m not sure if this will ever work but it’s the only hope I have. I suggest you do the same as me if not already doing so, give yourself the best chance of a happy life you can :) [/QUOTE]
