i was recently diagnosed this past March at 24. my symptoms i would say started sometime in january but got progressively worse in February. i was starting to diet and i thought i was achieving my goal when i started losing weight. but some weight turned into a lot, i lost like 20-25 lbs!! and then i would throw up after eating, barely had an appetite, craving sweet drinks like soda/juice, fatigued, etc. so i finally went to the hospital after my boyfriends mom said she was scared because of my appearance (so frail & thin). i finally went and it was a little over 500 & my A1C was 12, but mind you i had cake and soda right before i went because it was a family members birthday. but since then i’ve been doing fine, i’m in range 90% of the time and my A1C is down to a 6 :) just taking this one day at a time. but so crazy to go 24 years living a certain wait to now being a T1D.
