Diabetics R Us

[JohnEGreen]

I think the type1 one was created first as I've seen some type1s just wanting advice from type1s. Which is more useful to them. Also they feel a type2s life is far different and for some a choice. Especially when everywhere is stating a diet can get rid of type2. Humf!
See what we have to contend with..... even from fellow sufferers. The press will have type2s as selfish and none vomiting bulimics.
Oh the joys of discrimination!!!!

It's that peculiar visual impairment that so many people seem to suffer from now you know the one where they look down their noses a lot.

and there is another thread along the same lines just for T2s. ( T2s R us)

But why so many the originator of this thread was being a bit optimistic then when she thought we could have one thread for all that we could all chat about anything and everything no matter what type of diabetes we have There are still the T1 and T2 sub forums for the more serious stuff

I think this thread is great lots of good banter and day to day chit chat its not about type 1 or type 2 and yes there are sub forums for either type but this thread is for everyone regardless of type and i certainly wouldnt describe it as discriminating

I dont feel like that i think regardless of type we all manage our conditions as best we can and i certainly dont think type 2 is a choice im a type 1 and certainly wouldnt say that

Hi,
I'm the OP. The T1 thread was started first, quickly followed by the T2. I didn't like the division so I started this for ALL types whether known or unknown. If people want to chat great, if they want to ask for advice then that's fine too. However, there may be better places to ask for advice. What I don't want on here is any sniping at 'other types' or 'banter' aimed at other types. That makes me sad, and I'm sure no-one want to make me sad do they?????

Hi All,
I've been away all weekend and I've missed you. I have been out on an archery range all weekend and have managed to walk in excess of 4 miles per day! The weather was breezy at times, but dry. I've had a great weekend - hope you all have too.

Hi @Juicyj could you please PM me and explain what the issue is? Have I done/said something wrong?
