Hiya,
Have you ever been asked to check your ketones? You can buy wee sticks at the chemist if your Dr won't prescribe them. Anything over a trace of ketones, combined with a high blood sugar, needs informed medical attention immediately. If you are indeed a Type 1, you are at risk of diabetic ketoaciosis (DKA), which is a medical emergency. Symptoms of DKA iclude lethargy, stomach pains, nausea, vomiting, deep sighing breathing, a 'pear drop' smell on the breath, bad headache, together with extreme thirst and weeing.
Please let us know how you get on.
Sue
