Some people are so clueless...
In MY oppinion, diabetes is always bad but it can get worse! So i guess you COULD say those who struggle soooo much and still can't gain control at all, have a bad case of D, while people who have good control with or without struggling a lot, just have diabetes. But the main thing is that many don't understand the reason WHY some diabetics use insulin and others don't. So i guess because many don't know why some diabetics are on insulin, it sort of becomes an indicator of Bad diabetes since it's being used when nothing else works.
Hope it makes sense... I'm currently at 1.9mmol/l so i'd better go and eat something
