As a diabetes advocate you may get sick of
reading my posts but I v volunteer to tgy to help
new ones who feel scared as there is no need to
be now.,
Modern medicine has made lt a cinch tol
live happy and healthy with diabetes.We eat
just the way good nutritionists say we all should'
eat. heavy on veggies and fr uits, some lean meat
like chicken breast, fish and very lean beef,
We learn which carbs are simple and shoot
up ones blood sugar and which are complex
and good for us to control our blood sugar.
Taike advantage of free seminars given by local
hospitals and nurse diabetes reducers. you will
learn the latest facts and will meet others who
are also new diabetics and thus make friends.
Exercise and stay slm and stay away from
stress .be happy; follow your doctors orders and
know you can live a long good happy life.

You are right, Patsie. Diabetes is not a terrible word if you learn to control it.

Absolutely. Diabetes care has come on in leaps and bounds. I remember the days of really complicated insulin therapy the different strengths, the different forms of insulin, human, beef, pork etc different strengths 20, 40 80 strengths. The initial change from these insulin to synthetic insulin and how people bombed out on them. The number of people who lapsed into comas due to them being prescribed the wrong strengths etc etc.
It is so much simpler to manage these days!

@Hatley Haha do you remember the tablet tests for urine! Boy that was something else. Now the strips are so much easier. I do hope one day they find a cure for diabetes mellitus.

This is a bit of an off day but not so much all the turmoil has calmed down now so I can think straighter.
