| I think you're a 100% wrong and a 100% right in doing something like this. Having been a Film Production Major in my university days I would totally support you on this. Although if you want to make this a documentary that really works you will need to do more research than on your own body (as you suggest).
Namely, interviews with trusted prefessionals (i.e. Doctors and Scientists), with long time and short time diabetics. Interviews with diabetics will help your audience understand the issue and why a cure should be found. Interviews with family members related to diabetics to understand how it affects them. All diabetics have been helped by someone during a low or a high.
Lastly, you can intercut through all of this your experience with a low and a high. This, I think, will give maximum effect to your cause which will not go unheard.
Remember you are a person with diabetes and there will be a lot of people with diabetes watching. Make it good, interesting, impacting, and people will love it. Attention will be payed.
