Another new person from Washington State

Hi there,

I am 52 years old and a type 1.5 (diagnosed only a little over a year ago). I take Lantus and Novolog insulin but still have a lot to learn about diabetes. Anyway, I am just saying hello and am interested in reading about others experience and picking up on any good advice.

Thanks
