[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2416011, member: 451727"] I don't love a box, I just love a proper diagnosis so I know what I am dealing with. That's what makes me feel better. Imagine being in the type 2 'box' when you are actually a type 1, as many people have been and dangerously so, or in a type 1 box on insulin when in actual fact you were a type 2 and could have done it on diet alone maybe or a type 3c and boxed up as a type 2, the diagnosis matters as does the different treatments. You are right in that we are all individuals with varying physiology and thresholds etc, but type 1s are 'all the same' in terms of their diagnosis and eventual insulin requirements but that's not to say their numbers in relation to glucose levels or blood tests or C Peptide levels or reactions to food or amounts of insulin are all the same (same for type 2). I'll be honest, I find your post a little flippant considering it is a serious disease we are all coping with. Besides which you are wrong and your post may confuse people. [/QUOTE]
