No. You must be a doctor..you have the same twisted sense of how the disease works. Just because you take insulin doesn't mean you're type 1. Also, you're not necessarily born with type 1. I was completely normal until 11 years old. Type 1 is when you're islet cells are completely destroyed by your body. (autoimmune) Type 2: Insulin producing cells are present but are not working properly hence the use of oral medications. If it's not taken care of by the lazy asses, then yes, insulin is required but I don't feel sorry for them one bit. They can still reverse it. I can't.
No, you miss understand. I repeat, type 2 can PROGRESS and BEHAVE like type 1, i.e. with necessity to administer insulin. Insulin producing cells down-regulate production, while other cells become desensitized (thats the gist, and i know u know that). And when I said type 1 is something your born with, I meant that onset is of genetic origin (er hence immune system). blah im too tired for semantics.
Is it normal my diet consists only of chocolate and sugar?
