Moths & mushrooms!
People who are ignorant towards diabetes :(
Animal cruelty
People who use their mobile phones whilst driving
I've been T1 for 18 years, and in 2013 I was diagnosed with epilepsy which was pretty rubbish
As we all know, the DVLA are generally cautious with diabetic drivers - so adding epilepsy into the mix was a barrel of laughs! Thankfully, after volunteering my licence to them, and not driving for almost a year & not having any fits/hypos they gave it back with no further restrictions (still 3 year review). Happy days!
I don't find that either interferes with each other, which is great!
Anybody else T1 & epileptic?
