[QUOTE="grumpy old man, post: 107166, member: 18418"] Hi to all. This is my first ever post so hope it will be of some use. Sept 2006. After two weeks on holiday in sweltering heat, drinking at least 4 litres of water a day. Thinking nothing was wrong i went back to work. still drinking a lot,graze on stomach from surf board not healing. I realised whilst driving that i could not read the road signs ahead. Went for eye test next day, advised to visit a&e where my sugar level was 28.6 after 1 hour 36.2 and told to visit GP in two days. Back at a&e three days later with ketones . put on metformin for two years but ended up on insulin a year ago and never felt better. Now all under control with HBa1C of 6.5 in August .
