[QUOTE="Heathenlass, post: 804131, member: 84861"] I believe the prognosis for life expectancy has always been flawed, as well as being rather, outdated. A Century ago, prior to the synthesis of insulin, life expectancy wa certainly short. Very short. Since then, treatment and management has come a long long way ( apart from, in my own opinion, dietry advice for Type 1's which has taken a backward step, but I digress :rolleyes:;) ) The statistics for life expectancy were compiled with the inclusion of those people whose management was poor, not always through a fault of their own. In addition,people are living longer generally, and as has already been mentioned, there is a growing number of people living with the condition for a very long time :) Signy [/QUOTE]
