Individual medical questions are quite difficult to answer in this type of forum however, i know if you are insulin dependent you won't be allowed to join the army this is due to the potential difficulties of getting insulin into places you could potentially find yourself in. We do have diabetics in the army, those who have been diagnosed since joining, however some of them will find that they are medically discharged and others will be unable to be deployed. Sorry i can't give you better news.
