    Tonight’s Ask PHLemmy: What have you survived that would’ve killed you 150 years ago?

      There are too many to mention.

      Insulin, for starters, is just a hundred years old. If you were T1 or LADA back in the day, you’re pretty much dead. Whereas I survived like 2-4 hospitalizations for related illnesses.

      I’d like to think that 150 years from now, cancer would be seen as that generation’s polio.

        1st time ko marinig about LADA. Marami na naman ako itatanong sa doktor next time.

        Same. Got it twice, to boot. I do not want a third time.
