Has anyone else had this problem?. . .I've reverted back to using "juvenile diabetes" to describe my disease because when I use "type 1" no one knows the difference at all. Not that they have that much more of a clue if I use "juvenile diabetes", but when I use "type 1" all they hear is "diabetes" and automatically assume I'm type 2, almost as if they do not know there is a type 1 and a type 2, but if I use "juvenile diabetes" they have at least a vague idea that's it different than the "general diabetes" constantly in the media. |
