Okay guys I'm type 1 got diagnosed Jan 2012 age 30....I took my insulin for the first 5 months after being diagnosed and haven't really taken it since I know I really do need to sort myself out and start taking it again but I'm just so scared I always get abcesses that always means a stint in hospital for me and my health is really not very good I'm tired a lot but I dont sleep and I'm always thirsty...but I'm scared to death about putting weight on I used to be 17 stone and after a lot of hard work through diet and exercise I lost the weight then got diagnosed as type 1 diabetic which ment a two Stone weight gain within a couple of month that's when I decided to stop taking my insulin and after more diet and exercise to get the weight back off I am now 9 stone and happy......but I can't carry on the way I am
