Wagging Fingers

I see a positive aspect of what appears to be my social disconnection. I generally do not care what people think of me. Usually want to know what they think and why, and will take it to heart if a negative appraisal stems from misunderstanding or incorrect assumption. I will actually stress about some such misunderstandings, and those type of situations are the ones I will try to improve..
My current level of disability is perpetually one of those potential situations.
Under some circumstances and from some mental angles, I feel that way about my disabling problems. This is specific to an incorrect assumption: these problems developed because I was a "bad diabetic."
While I did not manage my sugar through the years by the ways that benefit the pharmaceutical companies as much or more than they benefit the patients. This does not mean that I was not taking care of the sugar.
My numbers typically ran higher than doctor recommendation, but I had few problems as a result. I was healthy, it maybe I should rephrase that as I felt healthy and demonstrated no ill effects solely from diabetes. The sugar certainly exerted influence, but was not the root cause. The sugar exerts influence over everything. A case of the sniffles is more like with diabetics to become full blown flue, pneumonia, strep throat, and nasal infection.
Diabetes is simple: insulin manufacture by the body or effectiveness in the body is reduced, impaired, or has ceased. The effects of the deficiency of this one hormone becomes catastrophic, and the disease becomes a circulatory disease and a metabolic disease and an immunodeficiency disease all in one. Diabetics are prone to more problems because their bodies have been compromised and taxed. The longer the patient has had the disease, the more likely they are to develop problems in conjunction with ailments that would be nothing more than an inconvenience to a non-diabetic, a.k.a. "a healthy person."
I may have a touch of hypocrisy about this, because I cannot muster as much sympathy for the same situations among adult onset type-2 diabetics. Their form of the disease usually developed from lifelong habits of unhealthy living, particularly bad diet and its usual companion chronic obesity
Type 2 diabetes is avoidable more often than not, and the correlation in Type 2 among youths and children coinciding with an increase in body fat among the same group bears this out.
My right eye declined in part due to my then-ignorance of retinapathy symptoms, but was catalyzed in 2003 by a cornea abrasion. The diabetes was opportunistic of another problem.
The left eye originally went bad as a vitreous hemorrhage in reaction to Cialis. The hemorrhage healed, but I remain impaired in that eye in multiple ways because of things doctors did, most noticeably PRP surgery that I should not have let others scare me into. Diabetes influences this outcome by the eagerness of the doctor to do the PRP, and the need for the Cialis.
The development of the Charcot foot is undeniably an effect of diabetes as these days, "only" diabetics get it.
Strangers and some acquaintances alike will never stop wagging fingers and insisting that I brought these misfortunes on myself by being a bad diabetic. On most levels, I don’t care what others say or do and I always know I cannot control the thoughts and actions of others.
I just don’t want them to get too upset when they see what finger I wag back at them.
