Hello Doctor My niece has fallen in love with a guy who is a juvenile Diabetic. The guy is very good but only for this reason her parents are against her marriage. So I want to ask you that is it right to marry a guy who is a juvenile Diabetic type 1 insulin dependent? What will be the consequences? Please advice Thanks.

lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. A person with T1 diabetes can live an absolutely normal life with proper blood glucose control by taking regular insulin injections, plus maintaining strict dietary control and regular exercise. Now a day persons with T1 diabetes do live a normal and long life like every one else. Hence, there is nothing wrong in marrying such a person. There are patients living up to 80 plus years with T1 diabetes. Thanks.
