[QUOTE="johnpol, post: 2519240, member: 387645"] Diagnosed at 26yrs old after a Viral infection attacked my Pancreas. Worked in Forestry so a physically demanding job, hypo's galore as I tried to workout this wonderful condition. I've competed in Strongman, Bodybuilding and Powerlifting. Winning British Championships along the way, I've now got, as my Diabetic Consultant says, "Complicated Diabetes as I show Type 2 tendencies alongside my Type 1, only you Mr Pollard!" but I've found that you have to control diabetes and not the other way around, things never go the way that you want, but as long as you keep trying that's the main thing. I've seen big changes in how diabetes is managed in my 26yrs diagnosed, but also some interactions with some terrible doctors who really don't understand this condition. But I'm still here, still plodding along, and still trying, and that is the main thing. [/QUOTE]
