Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dippy3103" data-source="post: 148993" data-attributes="member: 23503">IMHO diabetes in itself is not a disabilty, but the complications can be a disability.If we were to take a leap of faith and say (for arguements sake) that it were. How "bad" would one have to be to get the "perks" of disabilty? A t2 like me who is diet only? A t2 on insulin? A t1? I know t1's who have fantastic control who are in better nick than me! If we as diabetics want to be by and large accepted as able to hold down jobs and not be discriminated against because of our condition we equally can not use it as an excuse to jump queues. Well enough to physically go on the ride unaided well enough to queue with the rest of the hoi polloi. If ones condition is so unstable that the ride could cause a hypo then why on earth would you want to risk such a highly unpleasant and potentially dangerous reaction anyway.</blockquote>
