That honestly must be a tedious life, living with diabeetuhs. Are you guys paranoid all the time about what your blood sugar is at?
Question! Have either of you been in a diabetic coma? If so, what happened?!

It's not diabeetus that's affecting Ren, Wilford Brimley dumped her after they dated for 2 months. They met at a yearly ADA (American Diabeetus Assosication) Seminar. It was quite sad.

Wilford is so pimp.

Fuck yeah, so pimp he didn't even tell Ren to her face that it was over. Just wrote "It's over." on the back of a Liberty Medical Supply invoice as he left.

AHAHAHA. If I had dated Wilford, maybe I could've at least swiped a pump from his house or something. Though just to clarify, Wilford clearly has type TWO diabetes, which is very different from type 1.
To answer your question, Sin, I've never been in a diabetic coma. I think that's pretty rare and would tend to happen when the person first gets diabetes and is undiagnosed (my mom tutored a little girl who went into a diabetic coma when she was a baby and had resulting brain damage/learning disabilities). There was actually a DOCTOR living with my family and I when I got diabetes, so we caught it pretty early. The conversation went something like this:
Ren: Man, I have been SO THIRSTY lately. It's weird.
Dr. Mike: Maybe you have diabetes.
Ren: Lol.
Also, I'm not generally paranoid about my blood sugars because there are symptoms. For example, I just make sure to check them when I feel myself really getting irritable and mad at things that shouldn't bother me.

at first its a little tedious but after a while its just like brushing your teeth. i was a little angry when i was first diagnosed and i really didnt take great care of my beetus so i was actually in pretty bad shape for a while. i had high cholesterol at the age of 18 and i was always feeling sick. but im glad to say now that i have sucked it up and i have great control of it now so that i have normal cholesterol, tight control of my sugars, and my a1c was a six. im not paranoid though because i just check my sugars basically before i eat anything or when i have the feeling my sugars may be high or low.
as for a diabetic coma, i havent had one.
@ren: at what age were you diagnosed? im nineteen now and i was diagnosed when i was sixteen but i had diabetes for some time before i was diagnosed because i had the symptoms but i thought it was normal.

I was 18 and just about to transfer to another university and move away from home for the first time. I had also just broken up with my boyfriend of 3 years and got my wisdom teeth out and had to go to the emergency room because I kept throwing up and my blood sugars were dropping. It was awkward. I fondly remember that as the best summer of my life.
Honestly, I'm probably still in the angry phase. I don't take my shots very much and my A1cs are around 10. I know I'm going to die, blah blah. I kind of forsee that I'm more of the "hit by a bus" person, though, so I'm not overly concerned. I'd really like to get in better control, though... I'm just so ANGRY that I'm supposed to take a shot every time I eat. Fuck that.
