[QUOTE="zoze_j, post: 1119003, member: 261782"] I also developed PCOS later on in life, after getting T1 (I was 10 when I got diagnosed). I often wondered if the PCOS is linked to my diabetes in some way? Do you think that it's possible after being diagnosed as T1, being hormone related it's caused the development of the PCOS? I've never asked my diabetes consultant. Those stats man, just...wow. Seriously. #facepalm :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead: I know I should accept by now that the media are full of ****, but it still ticks me off because I truly believe that if they printed the facts, not manipulated information, the whole world wouldn't need quite as much education from us :( Absolutely! But I do know of people who are almost stick thin & have developed T2 (obviously genetic as you mentioned, but not lifestyle related), hence my rant. They group people together in a negative light. I don't appreciate that one bit! The way I see it, others may disagree, is the media saying all kinds of cancer are caused by smoking, rather than mouth/lung cancer (I'm sure there may be others, but just to make my point). [/QUOTE]
