Re: So I see you belong to a "there is no cure for diabetes" religion.

"Hmmm, I see there is no point in discussing this matter with you since you belong to the "there is no cure for diabetes" religion. Placebo effect of the negative kind.

By golly, there are tons of other people "controlling" their diabetes wonderfully until the day they die. If this is the way you see things. Fine by me."

First, are you diabetic?   Are you cured?  Or are you just telling others how to live their life with no first hand experience?

Controlling and curing are two different things.  I have no problem controlling my diabetes without medication of any kind.  I do it by diet, and I have done it for a long time.  However, all I have to do is eat carbohydrates such as oatmeal, a potato, or pasta, (all worse than ice cream or candy for raising my blood sugar) and I'm out of control.  Like I said, I can control my diabetes and I do.  So, am I cured?  Or am I simply in control?
