Hi all,
Not sure if this has been asked/posted before but something that's starting to bug me.
So I was diagnosed as T1 recently after months of being treated as T2 with query of T1. I've been injecting insulin on an evening and now been increased to meal times if needed.
I've noticed that when my sugars have been persistently high, I've been experiencing urological problems. This includes thrush, itching of the area and splitting of the head (tried to keep this as PG as possible).
Is there a link between what I'm experiencing and diabetes? I have been referred to urology but as with the current NHS status, I've been waiting ages and the issue has come back. It's frustrating as the itching is driving me nuts but then I can't stand there scratching all day, plus with it split, it's sore and don't want people thinking I'm some sort of crazy person constantly scratching lol.
Any help will be appreciated
