[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1000185, member: 211504"] It's a no brainer until it kills him..... This is the exact kind of thing that you should NOT be doing....making assumptions and giving medical advice. While I agree that many of the signs point to diabetes, what if that's not what it is? What if it's being caused by an infection from his surgery? What if he has cancer? At that point, you're telling a man in his 60s with a very weak immune system who also recently had surgery to make SIGNIFICANT dietary changes. That could quite literally kill him. It IS NOT and SHOULD NOT be your place to diagnose him or recommend any sort of treatment. This sounds like a very delicate situation and he certainly needs to speak with a doctor about the situation. [/QUOTE]
