Hi how are things?My name is Carlos from Zaragoza and I am 28 years old, a month and a half ago that debuts in this in Diabetes type 1. I was diagnosed in an annual review of the work in the Maz, from there to the head of head, then to emergenciesAnd there I already got admitted for a week, I don't know how much I gave in the glucose measure, they say that nothing would come out, it should be very high, but the truth is that the symptoms of thirst, urinating ... I do notNote, or at least I did not realize, I lost some weight, but not much or three kilos, now I am learning how this is going. I would like to know if someone from Zaragoza is aimed at an association called Ade, so that I give me a little information about what they do and that, to know if it is worth pointing or not.Well for now I go to the Diabetes School, it has not given me any low or climb, for the moment it is already accepted in my head that this is for a lifetime, now the biggest problem of everything is people, which now turns out that everythingThe world knows a Monton, and on the Internet it even afraid to read things of the batters they say.

Hello Carlos! I'm not from Zaragoza but I wanted to welcome you! Just tell you that you will see that there are people with good control and TB with bad.And that is a totally bearable disease if you have good control and do what it touches.What people tell you about.When I debuted they told me things of the type: 'oh, to see if you are going to be blind.'People speak without knowledge, because they know someone who meets another one who happened to something ... You will see how you can make your life as before when you adapt;A month and a half is very little. About the associations when I debuted I was in my city for a while.They made talks and helped me to learn more about diabetes, food, different situations, etc.Then I stopped going because it was very repetitive.But to try maybe you don't lose anything. A hug

Hello Carlos, welcome to the forum,
Normally glucometers do not mark above 600mg/dl ...
You really have to believe little of what people say ... or at least contrast it in trust sites such as medical societies, scientific journals ...
Associations not only to see what they can contribute/help you but see if you can contribute/help something. Over time you will realize the late and how unfortunate the attention to diabetes is in Spain, in general. People with type 1 diabetes are lucky, a specialist serves us and we usually have simple access to a diabetes educator ... Most people with type 2 diabetes do not have that luck, and are quite left.
