I suspect that's why they're reticent about posting anywhere. Had one, looking over
my shoulder while I was checking here comment "go'won then, ignore me then, chat to
you're diabetic mates" And that's someone who's on tabs daytime, and supposed to be on
insulin at night. Talk about denial - sheesh!

Wish people would get into their heads it's not about them - it's about sharing their experiences,
good and bad to help others - heck, we're all in the same boat by varying degrees :shocked:

I suspect it's because there's so much negativity about diabetes nowadays - it happens to overweight people
with poor life-styles. Apparently. No-one wants to admit that (a) Yup, it may be true. (b) It's not true, but I
don't want to post anything, anywhere that suggests it might be.

(sigh)

I'm getting hard in my old age and do like a little in return too. It is about helping each other.

Very cheap look at Research over the last 5 years or so.
