[QUOTE="EileenWagner, post: 1161263, member: 228359"] I gained some weight awhile back, and any time I told a medical professional I had diabetes, they assumed it was type 2 because of being overweight. I had to get something at one point (I can't remember what it was) at a pharmacy when I was on vacation, and when I said I was type 1, the pharmacist actually wanted PROOF that I was type 1! I nearly fell out of my chair laughing at his stupidity. [/QUOTE]
