I can only speak of type 2 and my own observation.
There are may types of type 2's, on different regimes. Some have medication, some do not, and there are varying types of medication too. Its complicated.
Possibly stupid suggestion alert: maybe, when someone fills in the sign up form, the type of medication could be compulsory? I know some people want to keep things private but this is a medical condition related forum, and the type of treatment had a big impact on the advice given, so perhaps the need to know outweighs the privacy issue?
I mean, if someone posts a question where the reply depends on the type of diabetes, and the medication (or not) taken, the next question is, or should be, about what meds etc the poster is using, so that info is needed anyway.
Just my thoughts. Thank you for raising this thread
