I am a type II diabetic, non-insulin dependent, on the lowest possible dose of oral medication available, which is controlled primarily through diet. Recently, I was presented with an opportunity which would have required me to get a AAUS dive physical, but the guidelines don’t differentiate between different severities of diabetes. Has anyone else gone through the AAUS dive physical process while diabetic and what was the outcome? I suspect that my endocrinologist would have no objection to signing off on my ability to dive without reservations, but is any diagnosis of diabetes an automatic disqualification?
