To be honest, it happens right across the board with all permanent heath conditions. I also have Crohn's and was only diagnosed as diabetic in November last year, but I started to lose weight prior to that because of diabetes and my gastro consultant decided the weight loss had to be down to the Crohn's.Is it just me or does this happen to everyone else ...... i dont go to the doctors often but every time i do go my ailments are always put down to my diabetes??
I just dont feel like in been taken seriously and just fobbed off
Insurance companies also make these connections. I had health insurance that would not pay out for 'diabetes induced stroke', which was a pre existing condition declared when I started their policy. It can be worse if you have a car smash involving injury. You will have to provide readings taken within the hour before the accident to prove that diabetes was not affecting your ability to drive. You need to declare your condition to them when you take the policy out, otherwise the policy is invalid and void (preexisting condition undeclared)To be honest, it happens right across the board with all permanent heath conditions.

Obviously I have put the weight back on now and he accepted it was nothing to do with Crohn's. So I get different consultants always putting things down to the one condition they are treating!
