Echoes is right. The name of the illness is not nearly as important as your symptoms. Some people with diabetes go to work every day. Some go to dialysis three times a week in their wheelchairs because of their amputated foot. One is disabled. One is not. Both have diabetes.

Grizabella, I will just ask you outright. How old are you, when will you be age 66, and when (month/year) did you stop being able to work because of your medical condition? All of that matters as well.
