▲ 7 r/diabetes_t1
Hi everyone, I was misdiagnosed as a type 2 diabetic for about 6 months and was basically starving myself until I found a doctor to run antibody tests and turns out it’s type 1. I am very overwhelmed, and while I have family members with the disease, I never thought it would be me. What pumps do you guys like? Is the bionic pancreas any good? I am struggling mentally with this diagnosis and really don’t know if I can mentally handle all the carb counting and blood sugar checking, not to mention the huge financial toll. Honestly and tips or tricks or advice or encouragement would be appreciated.
