Navigating Diabetes Together

So I think from, so I think from a patient point of view, so I think it's really nice, it's really nice to know that there are other people out there just like you going through the same things and to talk about that with people. I don't really know any other people who have diabetes, or diabetes like I do, and that's okay. But it's quite nice to talk to somebody who has the same thing and goes through the same experiences, because if you don't have it, you don't really understand it. And I think the other thing that would be is useful is that people, like people have secret inside tips and tricks that you might not know about, that is quite good for kind of, you know, talking to other people and recommending and things, things like traveling and time zones, and what do you do with your insulin needles when you get on an airplane and I don't know, things like that. And then I think the other thing that probably is useful is talking about food and diets. And I think you can change your blood sugar control very dramatically by changing your diet. And it's quite complex and it's quite, I suspect it's probably quite individual for an individual person, but there's lots of things that I never realized that it's taken me a really long time to learn. So things like, if you have a really high fat meal, your carbohydrate that you eat in it will be absorbed really, really, really slowly. And you're probably best not injecting your insulin before you eat. And you learn that by bitter experience, but stuff like that, that you don't necessarily learn when you go to your hospital appointments or your GP appointments, but is actually quite useful and to talk about with other people.
