Hi everyone.
My husband was diagnosed 2 days ago with type 1 diabetes. He is 35 years old and has been displaying many symptoms of the disease. He has lost over 50 pounds in the last 6 months without trying and his overall health has not been great recently. His blood sugar reading was at 520 when we went to the Drs. Needless to say, it has been a crazy few days and it all seems very sureal. Between Drs and shots and finger pricking and phone calls and researching on the internet…. His brother was also diagnosed as an adult (age 26) so we have seen what lies ahead. Trying to feel positive and greatful it wasn’t something worse, but feeling a bit overwhelmed, too.
