The past week has been very hard for me.

I went for a test the other week as my blood sugars were too high (I am 30 weeks pregnant). I was asked, because the results were abnormal, to go the the specialist Anti-natal Diabetic clinic.

I got there and there were 2 doc's, a dietitian and a specialist nurse all waiting for me at the clinic.

They told me that my blood sugars were much too high, normally they should be between 4-8 but mine were 19!!!!!

They also said that I had to be admitted to hospital to get these sugars down and that I would now need insulin.

They couldnt say if this was permanent but I have found out today it is.

I really dont know how to feel about this..... part of me just says get on with it and the other part of me is struggling with knowing that I am going to have to inject myself for the rest of my life and be so careful.

So yeah...... I'm Type 1 and it sucks!
Kiz - I'm sorry to hear this, and wish there was something I could do to help. It's good that you've joined a forum where people can give you advice, and remember you have loads of friends here you can talk to.

Look after yourself,
