Following on from the recent post by DiabeticAl, I'd be interested to know if other people, like me, were NEVER told by their doctor what type of diabetic they were.
Mine never said if I was type 1, type 2, or anything else; he just said "you have diabetes". I tried to figure it out by looking at the internet. This was in Amsterdam. When I was diagnosed I had no idea about anything; I didn't even know there were different kinds of diabetes.
Is my experience uncommon?
