Hi Lucylocket, welcome to the forum 🙂 Have you had diabetes long? There are lots of friendly, helpful people here so please ask any questions you may have 🙂

Hi lucylocket. Welcome 🙂

How long have you been diagnosed and what insulin regime are you on ?

I'm sure you'll find making friends on here very easy. We're a mixed bunch, but we have at least one thing in common 🙂

If we can help with any answers or suggestions, we'll do our best.

DO you mind me asking how your autism affects you with your diabetes ?

ie. does it make it hard to work out ratios and carb count, etc ?

Everyone is different, so it's good to learn from each perspective. 🙂
