Would you trade your life with diabetes for a life in prison without it? Now I am not talking about prison that murderers go but more like a federal type prison. For me personally I'd do it. First of all I have no real freedom anyway and being I feel ill/horrible 90% of my existence anyway I have no quality of life so being locked up I'd be missing nothing. Of course If I no longer had it I wouldn't want to rotting in prison but just to not go through another day of this I say lock me up! Did I mention I can't stand this F*******G disease!

Yeah, HELL yeah,
I can relate to what you are saying. I have felt inprisioned by and have been inprisioned by diabetes in many ways over the years. i would trade some time for it to be gone. i feel like i cant do much because of the diabetes. i could do some time and not loose much. Even in prison -Peace- Joy & personal growth would be my mantra.
YES- I Hear loud and clear and i feel ya brotha
Very puzzling. It sounds like it may not be diabetes at all. People without diabetes can get 60-70 and also 120-140 blood sugar levels sometimes. So even if you didn't have diabetes, logically you could still get to those levels and feel like crap anyways?
Just a theory.

Maybe food allergies?
I think it is anxiety.
Well, there's a peculiar kind of anxiety that goes w/ diabetes? Dianxiety or something like that? Anxiety message boards would probably be useless as I can hear them all going "oh, it must be the diabetes, we can't help with that" but here, I'm not sure what to say about that degree of anxiety. I'm glad we cut walking the dog short as I was 50 when we (MrsAcidrock too...) got home and, of course, I didn't bother bringing a snack along because "it's just a walk...". The dog was probably running low too, as she hadn't eaten anything hardly all day....
I wouldn't call diabetes a prison,my grandfather had diabetes type1 for 66 years and still as strong as an ox .his a jugde supreme court and is a hell of a runner and swimmer achieved a lot in life.when I was diagnosed he said" son stop braging and get your shit together" ,pretty harsh of him to say that but he comes from a different time.
