Hi,
As I said not everyone can tolerate medications. I have exhausted all medical avenues and fail to tolerate all of them for diabetes treatment. It is not a matter of refusing to take insulin it is a matter of fact they have ALL turned me into something I don't like and no one around me likes, very aggressive and in your face. The worst occasion was when I had someone suspended by the throat off the ground. I'm not sure which one of use got the biggest shock. It is not as simple as you seem to think. We are not all the same and can react in very different ways to the same medication. I would advise working closer to see the full picture and not suggest it is a choice to go without treatment. Sorry if this offends you but your inference it is a choice offends me. When I'm told there is no other medication available to me, what choice is that, not mine! I really get tired of people who haven't experienced what I experience brushing it off as my choice. It doesn't mean it doesn't happen because you have not heard of it, just means you haven't heard everything. My Doctors are starting to learn I have a huge problem finding treatment, something they have never seen before. I know of one other diabetic with the same reaction I have from all insulins, but not as violent.
Cheers
