Type 1 Will there ever be cure

Hello @Curemytype1, Diabetes does change your life but you will learn to live with it and adapt. Don't despair, although there is no miracle cure yet there is hope to make the condition more manageable. JDRF are working on a smart insulin that when taken, which could be in the form of a pill, activates the insulin when the body needs it giving better control. It's early stages yet but promising. I donate to them each month so they can progress with their research. Have a read here >>>

Smart insulin probably never come either just like all other cures what ment to of been
 
Yeah I do nurse checked my diary for my levels each week check 3 times a day morning afternoon evening time diagnosed march after being rushed in to Hdu as found unconscious on floor

Ok. If you were only diagnosed in March, it's unusual that you already have nerve damage to your feet - unless that's not related to the diabetes?

I know I keep asking you questions but I've had Type 1 for more than 20 years and I've found that the best psychological boost is to control it as well as you can by learning about it. Knowledge is power.

I'm confident there'll be a cure as there are so many lines of research. In the meantime, we just have to stay as healthy as we can and keep the diabetes beast in its cage.
 
Last year I had nerve test thing done as had bad feet then,march rushed into hdu unconscious and after I got moved to ward the dr say about had diabetes unknown for long while for it damage nerves in feet,hope one soon but probably be to late for me see it even tho I'd love wake up and think I beat it and go back to old me without having injections and finger tests to do
