Hi all I've recently been diagnosed as type 1 at the age of 42 and was wondering if that's quite a common age to get diabetes?

Hi mike I was diagnosed on news years eve a good start to the year
Mine graced me with its presence aged 22 14yrs this year pfft!
The day of diagnosis my blood sugars were 39.7mmols at hospital...
My first question was 'oh, ok is that bad?' Lol
I was 2
I hit my GP with the same question word for word
From what they told me I think it was a near death experience and my mum was single so she ended up getting a lot of help from other family members, I can't really remember much, just a few small flashbacks
