Several of your "correct answers" are false[edit source]

I have been insulin dependent for 37 years, but if you don't believe me, perhaps you should ask other diabetics about their experiences. For example, i often have abdominal pain when hypoglycemic, in addition to having it during hyperglycemia. Or orthostatic hypotension is another example where my "lived experience" disagrees with your answer.

Perhaps you should clarify that many diabetics have symptoms that are different from other diabetics, or even different from the symptoms that same diabetic person had displayed during a previous episode. (For example during HAAF or Hypoglycemic Unawareness).

I hope this comment helps you modify your quiz to support people in better understanding , health, success, etc. Thankyou for your efforts in this! Will loves stories (talk) 00:21, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
