Heh heh, no. Most diabetics are known for poor healing abilities (a
cut may last for weeks or more). As for me, I get one cold every year
to year-and-a-half. That's it. Any cuts I get (and I get plenty when
I'm working on the bikes) heal up quickly, without any special
ointments or bandages. I've never gotten any infections, either.
The downside to this immune system, is that a few doctors believe it
was precisely that which caused the diabetes in the first place (the
immune system attacked the pancreas,etcetera). So I guess there's a
trade-off. :/
As for X-men? I'm looking forward to the third movie next month!
The first two were a lot of fun.

Well, James, sounds like your immune system's much like my own. Very
powerful and effective.
I only had one infection, which was cause by an ingrown toenail. Sick, I
know, but it required surgery, which didn't stick, then a procedure, which
finally did the job and it took a year and a half of waiting just for the
procedure.
But even when I had the infection I rarely got sick. Even despite having the
infection during my High School years.
As for the immune system of my own I rarely ever got sick and always healed
quickly. I even inherited a mutation trait from my father that made it
possible to where I never had to have my tonsils removed. What luck ^^,
