WOW...can't believe someone would even think something like this. I would NEVER, EVER wish diabetes on anyone, even my worst enemy! Do you think someone with cancer wishes it on everyone else because they have it?!
I think, however, that if I even questioned whether or not I had a disease, I would go and find out something definitive, for my own peace of mind. We all believe, however, that early detection means better control if you were to have it.
Hopefully you are fine and will never have to deal with what most on this forum deal with on a daily basis. Hopefully you won't have to every worry about losing a limb, losing your eyesight or having a heart attack. Hopefully, you'll never worry about sticking yourself many times throughout the day, eating right and STILL having a blood sugar level that's not acceptable. Hopefully your life will continue as it is. I truly hope so.
I am, however, very offended that you would think ANYONE on this forum, or anywhere else for that matter, would wish experiences with diabetes on another!
