Hi there,

I am a second year clinical science student and we are currently studying diabetes and metabolism. Part of the project is to change the common (mis)perception of diabetes.

The reason I am posting is because I would appreciate if people would let me know what everyday myths they have had to face in living with diabetes. For instance, a common one, is that many people think that diabetes per se (not just some cases of type 2) are caused by sugar.

Thank you,
James :)
 
You might want to find the stupid thing s you've heard people say about diabetes topic. I'm afraid I don't have a link, but there's some classics on there.
 
Maybe you should survey non-diabetics to check their misperceptions before you try to change them...
 
Very good point jrussell88...and it could be an opportunity to correct a few comments and reasonings!!
