Just curious of the people on this site, what percentage of your life have you lived with diabetes?

I've lived with diabetes for 70% of my life. I'm 31 and was diagnosed with Type 1 at the age of 9.

88%. I'm almost 60 and was diagnosed at 7. And I must have been low during the days at school when they taught how to do percentages because I still can't figure them easily,

About 97. Diagnosed shortly before 3 and now just over age 57.
