Depends if you have Type I or Type II. Diabetes Type I - can be controlled through diet in some individuals or even pills. Type II - are insulin dependent individuals and cared for properly can be controlled for their lives but when left and not properly cared for it will ultimately become worse to diabetic insulin shock/comas, open wounds, removal of limbs, kidney dialysis/failure, and death.

type 2 diabetes can cause serious health complications. That's why is very important to know how to spot type 2 diabetes symptoms.

What Is Diabetes Type 1 and 2?

Well, diabetes happens when your pancreas stops working. When you have Type 1 Diabetes (like me), your pancreas makes no insulin at all. Most people take shots or use an insulin pump. Type 1 Diabetes can not go away. This type usually happens in children. Type 2 Diabetes usually happens in adults. Sometimes Type 2 Diabetes can go away. Most people who have Type 2 can lose weight to end their Diabetes. Most people with this usually take pills instead of shots. :) Hope this helps... :P
