Sitting in A&E waiting for a xray. I wrote type 1 diabetes and my meds on the form for the triage nurse.
You are too old to be type 1 she tells me as she scribbles type 2 over the top of my writing. 20% of people are diagnosed over the age of 40 I say.....
Stupid thing is I was diagnosed just 3 months ago in the very same A&E so they have all my records!
