Yeah, I was about 40 and I had no idea what was happening. I had just been getting better after being finally diagnosed with Celiac. I was really sick and even saw one of the major hospitals in the country for 2 weeks, they didn't figure out what was going on... then I finally had to go to the ER when I was, they said, 1-2 days away from dying or going into a coma. Definitely caused some problems in between then.

I haven't seen much T1 action on Lemmy yet, but the communities on reddit are quite good.
