[QUOTE="Amy993, post: 1435407, member: 342418"] I have been diagnosed almost 8 months. I had to spend a week in hospital when diagnosed. I am 17, and came to terms with it pretty soon after diagnosis. I had my first few injections done by a nurse, then my mum and then my dad. After a couple of days i was confident but was unable to go home as i had very low potassium levels. I went to hospital in severe DKA, about 5 days max away from a coma. Very high ketones of about 4, and glucose level was 19, but I hadn't eaten in days. [/QUOTE]
