Hi guys,just thought i would introduce myself as i`m new to your forum.My name`s Mike Im 42 and have been a type 1 diabetic for 37 years.Although I have been diabetic for a long time I perhaps dont take as much care of my condition as I should as I like to live a full and active life.Although I have an active social life,Im the only diabetic I know and sometimes find myself on the outside looking in at the rest of the "normal" world and would like to talk to other diabetics with similar experiences as myself.
