- LOL! You too? I think sometimes I tend to upset some of these folks here when I start talking about those stupid urine test compared to bs testing. LOL! I HATED THOSE THINGS!!!! I ........well..............wasn't a good diabetic "back in the day" b/c I thought the drs had lost their minds more than once. LOL! Yes it really is facinating at the improvements now isn't it? I put up that group b/c I wanted the younger generastion to see what we had to do to get here. At the time the other groups that say "I've had diabetes for 20 years or 30 + years" or even "Vetran Diabetics" wasn't here.
