hi all,i was recently diagnosed with type 1 (at 52) and just thought I would say hi to you all,hope to have some input once I have got used to the forum,cheers
 
Hi johnny, welcome to the forum 🙂 How did you come to be diagnosed? I was diagnosed aged 49, complete shock!

If you have a look in our Useful links thread you'll find some good sources of information. I'd particularly recommend getting a copy of Type 1 Diabetes in Children, Adolescents and Young People by Ragnar Hanas, an indispensable guide to Type 1 - ignore the 'children, young people' bit, it applies just as well whatever your age!

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have and we will try our best to answer! 🙂
 
Hiya Johnny. Sorry to hear about your diagnosis (I was dx at 41). Welcome to the forum. Any questions, fire away!🙂
 
Welcome to the forum johnny141 🙂
 
I was 52 Johnny, so you're definitely not alone. Welcome to the forum.
 
Hi Johnny, I was 3, welcome to the group you didn't want to join🙂. Good luck
 
Welcome to the boards, Johnny141.

I'm another who was diagnosed as an adult, aged 30 years, over 15 years ago, so couldn't access internet support then.

Ask away, join in, read threads, whatever helps you most.
 
Hi Johnny
I'm another adult diagnosis, age 40, in January this year so still a newbie. Welcome aboard :D
 
Welcome to the forum, lots of lovely people here to ask anything 🙂
