I used to have never ending colds. Well I thought it was the same one but it wasn't. It's possible to catch many colds, one after the other. My daughter (non diabetic) has had a cold since December! When she gets a bit better... we either have people over who have a big cold or a friend of hers has a bad cold and there she goes again...!
I used to be like that, before diagnosis. Colds, the flu, gastro enteritis (ack!), then a cold again... It was never ending. Every week-end I ended up in bed and sick as a dog! I was working 40 hours a week, raising 3 children, running like a headless chicken all the time (the only exercise I got!), going to bed around 11 pm (if I was lucky!) and getting up around 5h30 am.
What has changed since is... my diet (turning point I believe), and I do get 8 hours of sleep at the very least every night. I work part time and when I have time off I do try to think of myself once in a while. I get more done when I'm well rested and happy too. I exercise but I should do more. I am seldom sick now. And I haven't caught my daughter's colds either!!!!
