I am thinking of getting a medical tattoo, and I am wondering what the best text would be. I am hesitant to put “type 1 diabetes” because I fear that they will rename it in the future (see: “juvenile diabetes”). “Insulin-dependent diabetes” is more accurate, but longer. “IDDM” is shorter, but more cryptic. What do you think?

I’ve been tossing the idea around again too. It’s such a tough choice for words because of the things you’ve mention (size of words, clear message, etc).
