[QUOTE="asyarlk, post: 697102, member: 145583"] Hi Everyone I am new to this forum and new to diabetes. I haven't been ill, I woke up 3 weeks ago and started losing weight and then all of a sudden I had diabetes. It's a massive shock. I'm still hoping its a big mistake and somehow is not not me. At the moment I'm looking at photos from the past and thinking that I can't recognise that person. I'm sure I will feel better soon. I have a few questions which I hope you can help me with. - I've always been slight (5'4 and 8 stone) will I put lots of weight on? - when does putting needles in get easier? - any advice that you wish you had in the early days of diagnosis? Unfortunately I'm a nightmare for searching the internet and all I've read are horror stories. I worry about 'dead in bed' syndrome and a much shorter life. Can anyone give some positive advice or maybe tell me that it's not true?! Thank you in advance [/QUOTE]
