Hello, my name is Roxana, I am 15 years old, from Chile and I was diagnosed with diabetes 5 months ago ... Everything started this year 2013, in March when without realizing it began to drink a lot of water a day I took 4 to 5 liters of water, often urinates, losing many kilos in a few weeks, every time I saw less ... I felt that it would be blind, my clothes were getting more and more loose, and so it was all, three months passed and my mother decided to take me to a doctor, in JuneWe went to doctor we arrived and talked to the doctor, my mother had what happened to me, my symptoms, the doctor when listening to the symptoms that my mother told her that I had, I suspect that it could be diabetes. (A few weeks before I still suspectedthat it could be diabetes) Then it was to send me to do exams, the next day I went to make my exams and after a few days we went to retire, I remember that day was June 6, and Llovia Demaciado ..., againWe went to the doctor to see what the exams said, the doctor reading the exams ... Meanwhile I was nervous just like my mother thinking that she is not bad ... when the doctor melts, she speaks very scared almost grrtiando .."lady!His daughter has diabetes! "He has a lotI felt that my eyes died inside, eager to cry, desire to run, but no ... the only thing that is that moment was to prove that it was strong, to prove that I did not care.Without being able to believe what we finished listening, very quiet walking thinking about what we had heard my mother speaks very surprised- "How is it possible that you have diabetes?If nobody in the family has this disease "and so it repeated that phrase at all times. Meanwhile I was very surprised.For type II diabetes, the doctor was not very clear to know what kind of diabetes I had .. after a few weeks my mother decided to consult with other diabetes specialist doctors, so it was that he found an endocrinologist that remains in Puerto Varas ...The exams came to the doctor and it was to commit the worst, I found out that I had type I diabetes, I was no longer likely to improve the diabetes I was very avansada and by little, if they located after a few more days it would be dead or in a coma... Then it was that the doctor explained to me what I should do, inject my... Then that same day we went to buy things from the pharmacy to treat my illness such as glucometer insulins, etc. which all this was new to me.In all that time I was very calm I didn't worry much to have this disease, the only bad thing I found was not to be ableInsulina for the first time, I remember that moment that that stochon was very painful ... and so it was until today that I have to inject that same month of June my mom consulted in the hospital which gave me time for me to serve meOn June 26 ... we were the hospital they explained everything about diabetes, and it was that the doctor saw myExams that had previously echoed me in Puerto Varas which came out that my hemoglobin (the total sugar in the blood) was very high (14 which is normal is 6 currently I have 6) for my age that was very serious it was then that the doctorVery scared and surprised saying that I had never seen a person with 14 hemoglobin was alive and less someone of my age then it was that I hospitalize that same day, I was very scared wanting to cry because I had never been hospitalized and that right now comeTo hospitalize me it was very rare for me and for my potatoes the same ... I still remember that the doctor congratulated me saying that he was a very strong person to be alive with that level of hemoglobin .., then that same day he is in the Hospital Pór2 days and my mother sleeping with me those two nights, then they discharged me, I arrived at my house again ... 2 months passed with this disease I felt very good, my levels of sugar in my blood were totally normal, I did notIt mattered at all to have this disease but then it was that at the beginning of September I had no desire to take care of this disease no longer took care of me as before, my levels of sugar were completely out of control, a bit things that I did not owe towards exercises, until the dayToday my sugar levels are very high
Avesses I feel very bad and I wonder why I have to have this disease, because at this age and not be able to enjoy that many things that people do and eat ...
