It’s time for you to believe in yourself again

Ms. Rekha Negi – comes from Uttarakhand - India’s Switzerland – The region of mountains and  water falls.Rekha shared her storyI was 25 years old when I was diagnosed with type-1 diabetes. I was working as a consultant in an interior area of Uttarakhand in a Govt Industrial Training Institute. My diagnosis was a mystery for every doctor I visited, during this period. I suffered for almost 6 months being undiagnosed. I was having constant weight loss despite eating so much, I used to gulp litres of water throughout the day and night. I had Sleepless nights because of excessive thirst with frequent urination. I consulted every doctor in the city and they would advise me several blood tests (except for diabetes) and prescribed medications to me which I still don’t have an idea about what medicines I was put on. I lost almost 10kgs of weight rapidly and at last, the doctor asked me to meet a Pandit (priest) with my Kundali. (Horoscope)Rekha took diabetes as an opportunity to help other Type 1 and started UDAI – Diabetes Awareness Initiative – She is the founder and President of UDAI which helps Type 1 from state of Uttarakhand.
