to clarify, there are two types:
type I is the case where the individual is either born with, or receives it at an early age. Is irreversible and the person most commonly has to live with it the rest of their lives. The pancreas either doesn't work entirely, or produces so little insulin that its insufficient to support the body.
type II is when they're just fatasses and the pancreas still works, but the insulin can't reach all of the bodies cells through the bloodstream. hence the need for extra dosages of insulin.
Both most commonly associated with having multiple shots a day and not being able to eat surplus amounts of sugar

Get the diabetes mug.Diabetes is a God forsaken disease. There are two main causes to this, for type 1 your pancreas simply fails on you, it was not their fault. On the other hand type 2 was definitely their fault for eating too many twinkies and big macs. Both types of diabetes may need insulin injections to regulate blood sugar. Type 1 diabetics will always have to either inject themselves, or get a manual pump. Type 2 diabetics may need injections, depending on their conditions. Hypo glycemic is when someone's blood sugar is very low, this could lead to a coma, or death. Hyper glycemic is when someone has too high of a blood star count, these effects include, vomiting, nausea, and lethargy. Please trust this information, I myself am a type1 diabetic, and at most I take 7 shots a day

Get the Diabetes mug.Diabetes is a disease that either means you take tablets or you have injections everyday around 4-5 times everyday. You also have to prick your finger and put it on a strip. It is NOT contagious or disgusting. I have diabetes and i am proud to say that I have it and if any one is mean to me about it, I don't care because I've had it since a young age and it just makes me and diabetic people stronger!
I have diabetes and need injections.
