[QUOTE="Bebo321, post: 1285377, member: 68730"] I think the forum is probably self-selecting (people who are motivated to seek out as much info about their condition as possible are likely those who are motivated to do something about it), which is why there are so many success stories. What is interesting though, is the high proportion of people who actually succeed in reversing the condition (or even successfully manage the condition). I appreciate the term 'reversal' may be contentious, but how brilliant would it be if diabetes education and media coverage reflected this optimistic statistic. The recent Panorama documentary would have been far more motivating, optimistic and actually more realistic if it had reflected how successful people can be when they are given the right information rather than taking a defeatist attitude that people with diabetes are somehow an unsolvable blight. (Sorry - I have made the assumption that you saw the documentary) :) [/QUOTE]
