[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 119551, member: 8110"] Diabetes was named in ancient times, when it was recognised as having symptoms of passing excessive and sweet-tasting urine.( yes they DID taste it! :shock: ) Renaming it is a nonsense especially if T1s are going to be joining in the blame game. I'm T2, I wish I weren't. I am overweight, but it's not my choice. I have struggled with my weight all my adult life and it never gets easier. I have never made a habit of eating fast food,In fact, I'm old enough that the only fast food available when I was young was Fish and Chips and that was very much a special treat, a couple of times per year. Ok I know the cause of T1 is still unknown, but T1s joining in blaming T2s for their condition and making out they are in some way superior is unacceptable from those who ought to know better.
