Treatment and care

It’s important to look after your health anyway, but being diagnosed with diabetes means that it’s even more important.

This section tells you all you need to know about managing your diabetes on a day to day basis, including information on injecting, testing your blood glucose and managing high and low blood glucose levels.

There’s also information about the potential complications of diabetes and what care you can expect from your healthcare team.

The information is designed for young people with Type 1 diabetes, but if you have Type 2, there’s lots of relevant information on our main website.
