[QUOTE="kattyy :), post: 124467, member: 25507"] Hello :D I was fourteen when I was diagnosed, and I was in a science lesson and we learnt all about diabetes. A few weeks later a friend said to me that I always needed to go to the toilet and always was drinking and once she said that I realised that I had been doing that a lot. After that I started to wake up 6-7 times a night and I would have to go get a huge drink and go to the toilet! I weighed myself every morning and I would lose 2 pounds without trying everymorning I read up on the internet but I didn't believe it. I went to the chemist but they wouldn't do a test because I was younger than 16. So i went to the doctors and he put me in for a blood test the week after, I went to that and 2 days that he said I needed to go into hospital imediatly! I was in the hospital for 9 days due to my state by then and I was diagnosed with type one diabetes :) I am doing very well with my bloods now and they hardly ever go high! kattty :D xxx [/QUOTE]
