Diabetes type1, PD and exercise help needed

I have both of the above diseases and need help in terms of exercise over a long period. Is there anyone out there with both conditions trying to battle both and win?

I find that either low or high blood sugars affect my PD and leave me unable to exercise as I would like. Is there a research group/ expert I could join or quiz?

I will not be beaten, still smiling and exercising! No. 494 with PD face on

Do you have a diabetes nurse that could help? There must be people out there who have started an exercise programme and been able to get the advice they need to manage their diabetes.

It is the combination of the two. I've had diabetes for over 30 years and run marathons in the past. I@m due to see ddiabetes nurse in a couple of weeks. Thanks for interest!
