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

Message: <blockquote data-quote="Scott-C" data-source="post: 1751972" data-attributes="member: 374531">Let's just shake hands on this, and agree there's aspects of this we'll likely not agree on, [USER=219467]@bulkbiker[/USER] !My take on it is that I'm a T1 on MDI with a small amount of knowledge about cgm and that's the extent of my skill set.As such, I don't comment or offer views on T1s on pumps, reactive hypoglycaemia, gestational diabetes, lada, or T2,  except when those areas do some Venn diagram stuff which intersects with what I know about.But what happens all too often on this site, in my view, is that people step way out of their experience area.We see that all the time when a newly dx'd T1 asks for some basic advice on how they'll deal with a simple thing like a 50g panini, and then it soon becomes an argument with non-T1s who say they shouldn't even be thinking about a panini.Or some weird stuff about how they should scrape the filling off the panini, wrap it in lettuce and throw the bun away.There's an extraordinary amount of hypocrisy going on with T2 advice to T1s. Lots of threads where T2s admit to having a sneaky fish'n'chips even when they're telling T1s on other threads to avoid those things.I know nothing about T2, so I don't comment on it. Why do T2s think it's ok to  persistently tell T1s on T1 threads how they should manage T1?</blockquote>
