    I have heard that it is safe, and have heard of people with the disease who smoke, but for such a serious disease, you'd be better off asking a medical professional, rather than taking advice from an internet message board.

    Doctors aren't police, and though it may be uncomfortable bringing the topic up to them, they're still obligated to give you sound medical advice, and privacy laws will stop them from discussing your questions with anyone but yourself.

    Yeah... Honestly you shouldn't take advise from here. Go to your doctor and ask him how you will react to it.

    Just make sure you're taking your insulin properly. I don't have diabetes but my father does. (he doesn't smoke)

    Also make sure not to munch out... Munchies is killer

    I'm no doctor but I have never seen anything wrong in a diabetic when I've smoked with them.

    When in doubt, consult your doctor. It's not as awkward as you think.

    dude, smoke some and check your blood sugar 10-30 minutes after. everyone's body is different and reacts differently. If it were me, I'd smoke a bowl/bubbler and then periodically check my level.

    I see no issue, your ac1 is only effected by the amount of glucose in your blood stream so unless you are munching hard after you smoke then you should be fine. You may need to adjust your dosing of your insulin depending on the type you use since you would increase your metabolic need for sugar since thc makes your heart beat faster but probably nothing you will be able to notice since you will be high as well. If your really curious take a finger stick before and after you smoke and see how much your sugar drops.
