[QUOTE="marktype1, post: 968273, member: 167039"] Just wanted to know peoples opinions on this. I was diagnosed at the age of 8 and I am now 27 which means ive had type 1 for 19 years. Obviously because I dont remember not being Diabetic, its nothing out of the ordinary to me injecting, taking blood tests and watching what I eat. Although at times it can be awful (when you get that random occassional night time hypo that makes you feel week for hours afterwards etc), I cant help but have strange thoughts about how weird it would be if I WASNT Diabetic and whether I would miss it if say for example, I was to have the option of curing it tomorrow. Obviously I would take the cure but i cant help but think that being diabetic encourages me to be more active and healthy. You probably all think i am absolutely nuts but hopefully a good discussion will arise :) [/QUOTE]
