Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 diabetes is usually diagnosed in children or young adults. It has been diagnosed in older people, but that is a rare ocurrrence. Oftenthe symptoms of Tipe1 diabetes will come on suddenly and e very intense. The symptoms of Type 1 diabetes are:

. Abdominal pain

. Fatigue

. Increased thirst

. Increased urination

. Nausea

. Vomiting

. Weight loss despite increased appetite


Sometimes hospitalization is required in order to diagnoseType 1 diabetes and the to regulate insulin injections.

There an old saying, "the est defese is a good offense"; ad that is certaily true when you have been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Get the facts - the real facts, and not just something that somebody heard. You will be better equipped to handle your disease if you are armed with information. Diabetes is a life- changing diagnosis, ut it is not a fatal diagnosis. People who have Type 1 diabetes live long, healthy, and productive lives.

The life changes that you ca expect are frequent testing of your blood (usually about six times each day). Your diet is going to have to change as well. You will need to be aware of how many carbohydrates you are consuming at each an every meal. Sacks must be either regulated or eliminated. A low-carb diet will likely be recommended. There was a time when calories consumed were the main factor in determining the need for insulin, but recently it's been determined that grams of carbs are a more reliable factor.

Your exercise will also need to e regulated. Exercise burns energy and makes demands on the body for fuel (carbs). The exercise/diet/insulin ratio is sometimes difficult to establish and it does vary but you can controll it.
