yeah, you know what. I just deal with it..i have been like this since age 2....i really don't know any different other then what i see other people do..Yes it would be nice to go out and not have to worry about bringing my needle, my tester, making sure i combat everything i eat with insulin...somedays it becomes a chore but it's either i take care of it now and deal with it now or i deal with the major complications that can arise later. I'll admit i was a terrible diabetic in my younger years and a little bit is starting to catch up to me but overall for 33 years of diabetes i am still surviving..
