A7: False. At least nobody has said it to me directly. #dcde

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

A6: False. I do more, and take far better care of myself since my dx. #dcde

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

A5: True. My healthy choices make others uncomfortable. I've had ppl tell me to start taking meds and eat a piece of pie... #dcde

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

My fllter grows weaker...RT @thomasgoffe Hear that often. Left unsaid from me, "but you don't look stupid." One day it'll slip out. #DCDE

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

A4: True. I frequently hear, "But you don't look like a diabetic," followed by variations of "You must like sweets." #dcde

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

A3: True. Need my HCPs to have real, reliable data. #dcde

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

.@TwitchyBetes @IDocr No, I manage T2 through diet and exercise. I've spoken with many HCPs who are frustrated by patient compliance #dcde

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

A2: True. Great communication! #dcde

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

.@iDocr I don't believe it's true either. That is what I have heard directly from a number of HCPs. #dcde

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

@TwitchyBetes Thanks Chris! Glad to join.

[Bill - iRunDiabetes @iRunT2D]

A1: False. Not that we don't know how to take care of ourselves, but that so many (T2s) choose not to follow. #dcde
