Hi,
Just thought I'd say Hello to you all. First time I've posted on this site. I've been reading posts for a while. I'm Type 1 and only been diagnosed for about 7 months at the age of 44.
That's it really.

Rob.
 
Welcome 🙂

there are a lot of 'late developers' here!
 
Hi Rob and welcome to the forum. 🙂
 
Hi Rob - how are you? Shock to the system at any age. And a lot to get your head round! How did you come to be diagnosed?
 
Hi and welcome to the forum :D
 
Welcome from a T2 who's 15 months in.
 
Welcome from another late developer, I was 52.
 
Hi Rob
Another later bloomer here, 40 (well 39 really since I managed to battle on for a few months before disintegrating). How you getting on with it? Bit of a shocker isn't it? Anyway welcome aboard, glad you decided to say hello 🙂

Hi Rob, welcome to the forum 🙂 I was 49 at diagnosis - most unexpected, as I was due to run a marathon that week! 😱 How did it happen for you? What insulin are you on, and how have you been finding it? I found that it took a good 6 months before I really started to get to grips with insulin doses and matching them to my needs - not just the carbs, but all the other stuff that influences it, like temperature, exercise, time of day etc.

Please let us know if you have any questions 🙂
 
Any advance on 54? Welcome and enjoy the ride.
