just wondering this today as some type 2 diabetics look so young to have classic type 2 and some of the type 1 seem to be diagnosed older than the young children media represent.

If you do not want to put your actual age then do to the nearest 10 years. eg early thirties or mid fortes etc

When I was diagnosed I was in my early thirties. If you could give a short sentence of how you think you became diabetic would be great as well and what blood glucose you had at diagnosis

If a moderator or admin read this I have a question? how could I do charts to see everyone's ages at diagnosis separated into all the types of diabetes so I could see it as a graph or chart or just a display. I thought this might be interesting for people to see
 
Hi Ally, I have sent a message explaining how to add a poll. I'll close this thread so responses don't get mixed up 🙂
