Does anyone know if our immune systems are weakened by Diabetes? I seem to be going down with coughs and colds, one after the other. I only have a couple of days respite, when I'm attacked again in the shape of my Grandson coughing in my face.... No-one else seems to be affected.

The docs have always told me it does have an effect and recovery times for any ailments or injuries are longer.

In the time I have been diabetic I have found that if I get a cold then I am prone to them for a while. Touch wood though, I had three or four last year but nothing for ten months now.
