[QUOTE="oweri02, post: 999923, member: 30386"] i was just reading the thread about Diet Coke ordered at McDonald's and getting the regular Coke (great advise about using your meter to test it). So many comments about being diabetic rather than having diabetes. As a wise person advised, don't be controlled by your ailments I correct medics when they say "[B]you're diabetic[/B]" with "[B]no, I have diabetes[/B]", perhaps we can all adopt this and drive this? After all, this site is Diabetes UK, not Diabetic UK ;) Thoughts? Thanks Richard [/QUOTE]
