The main symptoms of Type 1 diabetes are known as the 4 Ts:
- Toilet: going to the toilet a lot more than usual, bedwetting in children who were previously dry at night or heavier nappies in younger children
- Thirsty: Increased thirst which is difficult to quench
- Tired: Increased tiredness/lethargy
- Thinner: Weight loss, looking thinner, clothes feeling looser

🚨 Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by the immune system overreacting to an infection or injury. Knowing the symptoms can save lives.

A child may have sepsis if they are:
· Breathing very fast
· Have a ‘fit’ or convulsion
· Look mottled, bluish, or very pale
· Have a rash that does not fade when you press it
· Are very lethargic or difficult to wake
· Feel abnormally cold to touch

In adults, look out for:
· Slurred speech or confusion
· Extreme shivering or muscle pain
· Passing no urine (in a day)
· Severe breathlessness
· It feels like you’re going to die
· Skin mottled or discoloured

⚠️ Suspect sepsis? Act fast. Seek medical help immediately. Call 999 or head to the Emergency Department at Grange University Hospital.

If you’re worried about an infection but don’t suspect sepsis, call 111.

*** VERY IMPORTANT ADVICE from the Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency ***

For our asthma and COPD patients, it is important that we manage the underlying condition instead of using the blue inhaler to help when you have symptoms of breathlessness and wheezing.

If you are struggling with overusing your inhaler or in managing your condition, contact us to make an appointment to review this.
