What to do
Hello all
I haven't been on for a while, so hope all going ok for everyone
I'm now at the stage where I have to choose mastectomy or lumpectomy. My Dr is saying my best option is mastectomy and I...
Thank you for letting me know your ok with what you had done. Ive heard good and bad from a few different people, but in the end it is where your heads at. If your positive and ok with the procedure, then all will be ok.
I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when 9 also, my birthday is next month, making it 40 yrs with diabetes. I found it's mainly about what works for me over the years, each person is unique and it takes time to figure out what works and what doesn't. The hardest times are when your young and at drinking/ party stage, health is not your biggest issue in life, or I suppose when your sporty and want to keep up with what everyone can do, learning to fuel your body with the right foods, so you can keep up.
All the best for you sister in law and especially your nephew, its a long road ahead and can be made easier with a positive attitude and knowing yourself.
