I'm a newbie

[Guest guest]

Hey group, I just joined this group last night in hopes of learning more about

type 1 diabetes. My name is Steve, 29 from the great state of New York, just

diagnosed with type (1) 2 weeks ago. The day I went to the E.R. I wieghed 112

LBS, my avg. wt. was 155 before. I didn't have insurance and kept putting it of

to see doctor because it cost to much. For months I put it off until it had been

2 days since I last got out of bed and my girlfriend; my wonderful girlfriend;

made me goto the hospital. So now you all know what comes next, the fear,

stress, depression, mode swings, vision problems and on and on. I think the

intial shock/fear has passed, now I'm trying to figure it all out. So I look

forward to chatting with those of you that I do, and wish us all the best.

The Great One has spoken!
