Hi
Is this normal, I was diagnosed with diabetes ketoacidosis in October and my weight has been stable since I started the insulin. I'm type 1 and have first appointment with consultant tomorrow, what will this entail?

Thanks in advance
 
If you lost weight prior to diagnosis then I'd expect that you'll put some of that weight back on over the coming months, I know I did! As for the diabetes checks, I can't say what will happen on your first visit but as a rule it's blood and urine results and a chat to discuss your diabetes control, here's a list from Diabetes UK of the essential checks you should have when you have diabetes, obviously some aren't applicable depending on whether your male or female, smoker/non-smoker etc:
