It was a real pleasure to be interviewed this morning by the ubiquitous Heather Stott about www.mydiabetes.com.
Prepared to talk about the myths of diabetes, reasons f0r blood sugar control, the importance of exercise and the challenges of the "healthy diet". I arrived early at the headquarter of the BBC in the center of Manchester.
The interview lasted all but two minutes and at the very least I managed to explain what diabetes means to most people. Fear, shock, anger, resentment. I also explained that our community has the purpose of letting patients, family members, friends and health care professionals share their stories and provide support and encouragement on the diabetes journey.
