[QUOTE="Becks33, post: 2077763, member: 505592"] Hi there , Yes you will regain neuropathy and hypo awareness especially as you only have diabetes 3.5 years it takes years of variable blood sugars to give you long term complications you haven’t any long term but if you get control now you should be fine! I am 23 soon to be 24 I have had diabetes for 15 years and the whole 15 I neglected and abused my body went months without testing or taking insulin I was always in hospital with DKA and had traces of keystones on a daily basis I also took recreational drugs and drank a lot of alcohol I am also a smoker, also my diet was horrific and I had a bad attitude! Now I have been diagnosed with proliferative retinopathy which is the worst stage of diabetic eye disease I require frequent laser treatment and right blood sugar control to settle this and hopefully not go blind and also give up smoking lol i rely on smoking to calm my nerves and stress!! You will definitely reverse any damage , variable BGS cause long term complications like mine over the course of 15-20 years you definitely have nothing to worry about!! [/QUOTE]
