Hi guys, sorry I`ve not been around, been busy busy busy =), Just thought I would share how I`m doing =P

So I was diagnosed type 1 on 27th June, 2012.
Since then I have got my hab1c test down from 114 (12.6%) to 43 (6.1%)!!!!!!
I have taught myself to carb count and adjust all my doses,
I am also in the process of applying for the pump. I have to wait until April next year though =p

I am proof that already not even 6 months into diagnoses and I have taken control. You dont have to let it rule your life. It was partly due to this forum having taught me so much and let me express any fears that I have. So I want to say thank you to everyone who has helped me so far along the way =) I know I still have far to go but I feel like I am in control of that journey =)

Thank you
Bekki xxx🙂

Well done Bekki. I too agree, this forum is brillaint. I have learnt far more than I could have reading any number of books on the subject.

Keep up the good work, great to hear you sounding so positive and in control Long may it continue. Well done you!

Well done Becky, sounds like you've made fantastic progress! I managed to get from 12.0 to 6.6 in my first 6 months so you've trumped me 😛
