Hi,
I have been reading this board since it started but have today decided to join in. I live in France but I am British. I belong to other boards and probably have learnt most of my diabetes control from them, but it is nice to talk to other people from the UK . I like it that this board seems to have attracted people with a variety of lifestyles and experiences.
I have had diabetes (LADA) for 5 years and now use an insulin pump. (I'm lucky, I would never have got one in the UK.) I am 56 and when I was diagnose I was shocked but determined not to let it stop me doing anything.
