Hi, my name is Colin and this is my first post although I've been diagnosed type 2 and a member for about 2 years.
What's concerning me, is, I had my second heart attack 5 years ago and suffer with prinzmetals angina. A rare form of angina which occurs during rest and is just as painful as a heart attack it's self.
Could diabetes have caused these events?
Many thanks. Colin. :wave:

Hello Colin. This is my first reply to a first post - :oops: - I was diagnosed type 2 about 7 years ago. I have also been diagnosed as having...wait for this......Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy! A thickening of the heart muscle. I was assured by my heart specialist that the two do not mix easily due to cholesterol levels. So the use of statins are very much encouraged despite contra-indications of statins that effect lesser (if there are any) parts of the vascular system. No probs with my heart up to now! :thumbup:
 
Undoubtedly. I have suffered 3 heart attacks and subsequent quadruple by-pass all after diagnosis. The surgeon who conducted the pre-op visit warned me against being blaze about Diabetes. Op took place in 2004. No hassles since then.

She was ready to change her lifestyle but she was very stubborn about the use of long term medications to control her blood sugar levels. She researched a lot regarding this and found that herbs for diabetes are also equally effective for the ailment. And what’s more there are even herbs for diabetes cure that has the possibility of curing the disease. One day, she came across [edit]. The medicine has not only helped cope with the ailment, she also found out that she can use for long terms.
 
The major goal in terms of treating diabetes is to minimize the increase of blood sugar instead of causing abnormally low levels of blood sugar. As soon as a person is diagnosed with diabetes, along with a proper diet and exercise, he/ she is recommended particular medication by a family physician. But instead of going the conventional way, you, the patient can definitely go out all natural and opt for some natural medicine for diabetes, especially some herbs for diabetes cure. But, do not have to go in search of herbs that can be deemed as beneficial for diabetes. [edit] diabetes care has brought to [edit].
