Is honey bad for you since it's a simple sugar?

I was told by a Dr. a few years ago to, among other things, avoid simple sugars for a certain medical condition I have. I haven't followed the Dr.'s orders very closely over the years and have decided that I want to start doing what she said. Anyway, I've been attempting to avoid cane sugar and have even started using stevia a little. But could honey be acceptable? Or is it just as detrimental as cane sugar?
